Hey /sci/ I'm creating a social networking site, but I can't come up with a name. It need to be professional, but also something that relates with people. Any ideas?

Well comming up with an idea is only part of the problem.
Servers don't come cheap and you'll need tons of bandwidth and space if you expect your site to keep up with all the people who sign up and videos demand tons of space and bandwidth.
If youtube hadn't been brought by google it would of definetely gone bankrupt by now.
And these sorts of things tend to grow at an exponential rate so you better have a bundle of servers ready at your disposal.
4chan is a good example of this.
Moot is in debt up to his eyeballs thansk to this site and there isn't a lot of ways he can make money out of it.

And the only way you'll get one of those is if you have expirience and credentials to show you know what you're talking about

>Facebook received its first investment of US$500,000 in June 2004 from PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel.[46] This was followed a year later by $12.7 million in venture capital from Accel Partners, and then $27.5 million more from Greylock Partners.[46][47] A leaked cash flow statement showed that during the 2005 fiscal year, Facebook had a net loss of $3.63 million.[
