I've helped 100+ founders make brand decisions. The most expensive one is always naming a second product separately.
Intuit paid $12B for Mailchimp, spent years keeping it visually apart from TurboTax, and is now paying again with a global rebrand to reconnect them.
Every separate product name is a brand you'll eventually have to pay to reunite. The bill arrives when you try to cross-sell and your customers can't see the connection.
Before you name product two: write one sentence on how it makes product one more valuable to the same buyer. If you can, it's a capability, not a brand.
