Naming a Business
Dillence
Posts: 153 Forumite
My husband is thinking of setting up his own business but we are struggling to think of a name.
He will be doing a variety of construction both external (garden) and internal (carpentry).
So do we go specific - eg AB Fencing
or
Generic eg AB Property or AB Construction
We don't want it to be too vague but also we are wondering if being too specific will limit business.
How much does it matter.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Why bother with the job description?
Just A B Dillence would be good and then (carpenter) afterwards. Gives him chance to diversify later.

What ever you decide, if he goes as a registered business, make sure you check the above site.
It's called Company House .gov .uk and it has a list of EVERY business name there is.
When on there click the middle option that says company search - WebCheck
Good luck with the naming.
We've just registered ours Yorkshires Cleaning Services
It makes you proud when you see it on there :beer: Thank you to everyone! :beer:

Inside Out Carpentry?
Maybe too gimmicky. I think you definitely need to list EVERYTHING he can and will do, if not in the name then as a list of bullet points underneath on your business cards etc.Make £25 a day in April £0/£750 (March £584, February £602, January £883.66)
December £361.54, November £322.28, October £288.52, September £374.30, August £223.95, July £71.45, June £251.22, May£119.33, April £236.24, March £106.74, Feb £40.99, Jan £98.54) Total for 2017 - £2,495.100 -

This will only list limited companies, not sole traders or partnerships that aren't.0
