Here's a simple solution:

Think of adjectives that describe your company and what it represents.

Plug those into a translation program. See what the same word is in Chinese, Arabic, Swedish, etc.

Pick a word from whatever language sounds best to you.

Now you have a one-word name that may have been taken in the English language, but sounds unique and is descriptive (in a sense.) When people ask what it means, you don't need to give an exhaustive explanation of how you arrived at that name. You simple say it means "XXXX" in YYYY language.
