Uncommon Business Name
Posted By: mssandylee82 on 1/22/2007 9:25 PM (CST) 25 Points
I need a catchy business name for a pet grooming shop!! Since there are so many shops out in Southern California, I would like to hear some names that are a little different, and unique.

Let me ask this question...
What is it you are trying to achieve?

What if...for the sake of conversation...you named your company ManeLine (mane of a lion)? Would that be unique...really?

If the purpose of the name is to educate your client base that you perform a specific service...any name you select should be followed by: "Pet Care and Grooming" or, something like that. Would you agree to that premise?

Since there are so many shops...and, if they are doing their job properly, they are naming their company regionally, to attract local business (West Side Grooming).

Where is your business? Would it hurt to not be so catchy and unique?

If you are on Jones Street or in an area called Memorial area...why not be Jones Street Pet Care and Grooming? or Memorial Pet Care and Grooming?

Just a couple of thoughts for you. Best of Luck.

Well, here on the east coast, there are a lot of companies with LA in the name (as in, short for Los Angeles)...such as LATans, LA Weightloss, and the like...So, perhaps you add some cache to it and call it "NY PET GROOMERS" or "Big Apple Pet Grooming"...

Well, I have to say Doggie Style did catch the eye. But may not be appropriate for some- which I truly understand.

How about- Fluffs & Mutts
