I thought myself oh-so-smart when I called my writing company The Write Stuff many a moon ago.

Turns out there is at least one company of that name in every English-speaking city of the world. But at least punters get an idea of what I do most of the time.

I nearly called a publishing company HardHat, for the simple reason that all music companies tend to be either acronyms or laughably optimistic puns (Buy My Music, Hit Sounds Music, etc.).

There is a certain art to naming things. I'll let you know when I master it.

Default Company Names

Hi there,

I chose Laughing Lion Design because I'm a Leo and I laugh (sometimes) and I chose Digital Design Cottage because I live in a very small bungalow/cottage in the sticks (Westmeath).

For anyone trying to come up with a name, here's a website, What Brand Are You? A branding viral by The Design Conspiracy ,you might find handy and save you thousands of quid on Branding Experts.

all the best

Jennifer
