We had a question from customer care today regarding how we got the name Xero. I often tell this story during events, but may as well tell the world. Firstly we really wanted a great name. If we are going to be a global player we wanted a name that stood next to SAP, IBM etc.tâs unlikely youâll be able to just get a great domain name. Most are taken and parked so you have to negotiate for them. Dot thought of Zero, but when we approached the domain holder the numbers they wanted were ridiculous. She then thought of Xero.
