Also witness "Apple Computer" becoming just "Apple" a year or so ago.

Gum Tree Consulting
Shine IT
Clue IT
Yellow Square IT

This sort of naming process could go on forever. The best name have nothing to do with the product. ie:
Sun
Apple
Dell
Disney
all don't mean anything in relationship to their product but are now synonymous with their products.

Yes but it has taken a shit load of cash to do it. Best names are incoperated into the the logo and are usully one word. Fedex and Kodak are two that spring to mind..........even Coca Cola as dropped the cola for marketing purposes and changed the spelling to boot.

Fixit's not a bad name but unfortunately not very descriptive of what I do. I'm a Systems Architect, so I design and implement new stuff rather than patching up existing systems.

I think I have a name, actually. I've decided to resurrect a business name my father used 15 years ago in the UK. I'm not going to mention the name as the registration process isn't complete yet, but it fulfills all my criteria and it's a name I'm both familiar with and comfortable with.

But thanks for all the suggestions; it's really appreciated.
