I know I wonder if Art runs the business though. He could have been an Architect but instead he's an importer/exporter

@dbigalow, Limited Ltd is taken - luckily Limited Limited Ltd is available. Now there's a name that would confuse your friends!

Make sure that you indicate 'Limited' in full rather than just 'Ltd' - this gives you the option to abbreviate in the future.

If you use the abbreviated version, you cannot use the full 'limited'.

WHS

also make sure you check that your company name is not taken as well as you cant register a company with the same name as one already set up.

It will be added automatically if you miss it out or if you add Limited when setting it up, it won't come out as "My Company Limited Limited".
