Marcel Hiller
Naming Consultant
Deputy managing director of Namestorm
Freelance presenter for radio, events, fairs and workshops
2006 saw Marcel Hiller come to Namestorm from a completely different area; that didn’t stop him quickly getting a reputation as a gifted professional naming consultant. With his excellent communication skills, he runs creative workshops about finding names. As an automotive expert Marcel is particularly suited to finding names in the technical area. For him, "naming knows no time or place", as the best ideas do not come rarely at night or while travelling.
Gila Dassel
Naming Consultant
Lecturer for creativity methods at Munich University of Applied Sciences
Graduate Geographer
Gila was born in Munich and came into creating names when she worked as a TV Producer. While developing formats for TV broadcasters she used to create a lot of titles for new TV shows. During a special project she came across the founders of „Namestorm“ and felt so inspired by working with them that she decided to work as a freelancer for them since 2015. She now contributes her media contacts and experience with the development for broadcasters and international production companies to creating titles and names. Gila also lectures creativity techniques at Munich University of Applied Sciences for the bachelor programme "Management of Social Innovations".

Julia Anna Grimaldi
Student trainee
Julia joined the team in 2019. She is studying Management of social innovation at the University of Applied Sciences in Munich, Germany, and therefore views the projects from a holistic perspective.
