Is this a good name for a company?

It sounds almost like "devious", which might be negatively connotated (but English is not my first language, so what do I know). It's also phonetically a bit close to Mevio (a podcasting company at http://www.mevio.com ), so if you're in a similar business, perhaps it could be problematic.
Otherwise it sounds and looks cool, and good luck.

Devious was also my first thought, possible self related "me being devious". You may have some people who think that but many may not as well.
If you are planning to model to support various properties what about Omvious (may be more memorable)? Om from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Om
or from Omni. Domain seems to be available.
Mivious sounds simple, memorable and catchy. btw, i would have said it the same way: Meh-Vee-Us.

Thanks a lot. I think Omvious is a very good name. But to be honest, I feel Mivious sounds a little better (probably easier to remember?).
Also thanks for confirming the pronunciation. I thought this is how it's pronounced, but as English is not my first language I wasn't completely sure.

It's a brandable, it's pronouncable and rememberable.
It's registered: http://whois.domaintools.com/mivious.com (to you?)
It's fine.

Thanks a lot. Yes, it's actually registered to me.
Also thanks for pointing out that I need to check whether the name is a registered trademark. I'm going to have a look on that.

It stands out as a unique name. It might slip my mind the first few times when I see it, but I could see it sticking around once it becomes popular.
Thanks a lot.
My-Vee-Us. Not bad at all. Good luck with whatever you're doing.
Thanks a lot. I thought it can also be pronounced as Meh-Vee-Us
I'm trying to pick up a name for a web company I want to create and would much appreciate your help. The company will run and manage a number of web properties owned by the company (similar to Demand Media).
So far, I've come across this name: Mivious
I specifically have a few questions regarding the name:
- Does the name have any meaning in any language? I have checked and haven't come across anything, but are you aware of any meaning or usage of that name? - Is this a good name for this type of company or any company in general? - How does it sound to you? - Is it easy to pronounce and remember?
Many thanks for your help.
