# What is a "vanity" toll-free number and how do I get one?

## Search for memorable toll-free numbers by word or number pattern, and use over-spell guidance when the phrase is longer.

A "vanity" number is a toll-free number that also spells a person’s or company’s name, a word or acronym, or specific combination of numbers that is chosen by the subscriber, such as 1-800-FLOWERS, 1-800-PET-MEDS, 1-800-DENTIST. Essentially, any number retrieved by the search-bar on the [800.com](http://800.com) main page constitutes a vanity number. To find out whether a specific toll-free number is available, visit **[800.com](http://800.com)**, type in the the word(s) or combination you would prefer and click "**Search**." 

**\*Due to the popularity of toll-free numbers, you may need to play with the search function a bit to find a suitable number.** 

For questions regarding toll-free numbers with more than 10 digits, see our "[Over-spell](https://support.800.com/en-us/hc/articles/115003705032-what-happens-if-my-number-has-more-than-10-digits-over-spelled?hsLang=en-us)" information page.
