Don't use your company name like example: 'roundoff', 'alex', 'ram',etc unless it is a popular company name like 'wikipedia', 'orkut', etc.
Brandable.
Never copy a blog title because in future there is a chance that your blog may become so popular and tile becomes a brand. So, never share a brand name!
Search for the Google adwords which shows how many times a unique keyword is searched in Google.com. So, search for adwords, make a list of popular adwords and search for the best adwords which suits your blog.
It adds a plus point for SEO if blog title and URL has some words in common.
If you blog title and URL has some words in common then it makes your blog more searchable by the search engines. For example, 'Title: Gandhi's life' 'URL: greatlifes.com'.
