I've been seeing a surge in interest for 2-word brandables.
Are they the next solid investment/Goldmine?
What makes a good two word brandable?

Couldn't agree more.Agreed it is why colors work well and a lot of people use them, BlueHippo, RedEnvelope etc... Then there are major brands who use a generic one word for something other than the generic meaning,
Mango - Fashion
Amazon - Books, ecommerce
Apple - computers
I think animals are popular too, SmartShark - MailChimp - Red Dog
SuperSeats.com works well for a company selling tickets online. They paid $48,888.
Maybe it not senility but where you live, here in the U.S. good does not rhyme with food
As anyone who’s ever tried to learn the language knows, English is full of contradictions and inconsistencies.
Why does four rhyme with store, but not hour?
Why don’t blood, food and good rhyme, yet blue, crew, through and moo sound the same?
Toronto artist and musician Mitchell Moffit rhymes off a long list of these maddening quirks in his latest video for AsapTHOUGHT, reciting excerpts from classic texts by Richard Lederer and Richard Krogh highlighting the baffling rules that govern our language.
Moffit is also the co-creator of AsapSCIENCE, a popular YouTube channel dedicated to explaining fascinating facts about our world.
As for the reason why English has so many confusing words — well, our modern language has roots in German, Latin and French, which creates contradictory pronunciations and spellings.
Dear teacher and friends,
I have a question about the pronunciation of food and good.
/fu:d/ vs /gʊd/
Why _ood of food is pronounced u: and _ood of good is pronounced ʊ?
There is no system at all. You just have to learn each word as it comes
/u:/ - food, boot, cool, google, moon
/ʊ/ - look, good, wool, foot
I'm British, although not Scots, where good rhymes with food all day long. As well as in other parts of the UK too. But having resolved that, I still maintain, that GoodFood.com is first and foremost an EMT not a brandable. The fact that you can turn it into a brandable also makes all my 2 word domains brandable (well maybe not all, but most of them), by the same definition Look at your own one word examples like Amazon and Apple. DogHouse.com (not one of mine) is just like GoodFood.com, and EMT which is capable of being branded.

I think that has happened over the years where EMD's have gotten to be brands so I agree with you it is an EMD in one capacity but has ways where it could be used as a brand. Look at the number of TM's registered using Good Food.
@dv82 - I checked out your report. You seem to be only reporting on LLLL.com brandables. I don't see any 2 word brandables in there
Oops! My bad.
does anyone know of a good brandable name generator on the web or do you just brainstorm your own thanks? have tried a few i've found but wasn't that crazy about the names they threw out
@equity78 - You have to ask how Good and Food rhymes? I must be losing something in my senility. And I still fail to understand how this is a brandable? Can you give me an example of using this as a brandable? Because using it to blog or sell good food, is using it as an EMD, IMHO.
