Arizona doesn't require the registration of DBAs, but Arizona's Secretary of State (SOS) calls registration an “acceptable business practice.” While registering a DBA in Arizona doesn't prevent other businesses from using the name, it does keep other businesses from registering the same name with the state.
Alphabetize single letters in business names separately, ignoring any punctuation that may appear between them. A company named "J & J Consulting" should be filed before one named "JM Auto Body." Use the last name to alphabetize businesses that include an individual's name.
The Maricopa County Recorder's Office issues a certificate of fictitious name, primarily for “Doing Business As” (DBA) titles. This requires filling out a simple form that can be obtained from a stationery or legal forms store. However, this certificate does not protect the business name under the copyrights law.
Maricopa County does not issue or require a General Business license for unincorporated areas of the County. If you are located in an incorporated city or town, check with your municipality. For more information, the Arizona Department of Revenue provides a Licensing Guide for obtaining business licenses in Arizona.
Visit the Arizona Corporations Commission's eCorp entity search. Choose your “Search Type” (“Starts With,” “Contains,” or “Exact Match”) Enter all or part of your business name in the “Entity Name” box.
California DBAs must be filed at the county level, unlike many other states where DBAs are filed with the state. You can start using a DBA before registering it, but you must file a fictitious name statement with your country clerk within 40 days to continue using the name legally.

To register a business name, you must first register your business to make it a distinct legal entity. Most businesses must file for a federal tax ID. If you want to trademark your business, brand or product name, file with the United States Patent and Trademark Office once you've formed your business.
Use a structured, disciplined approach to develop a list of potential names for your business. Don't rely on a gut feeling. Engage in market research, talk to potential customers, solicit feedback from friends and family and continue iterating until you find the name that sticks.
