I'm trying to think of a name for my new Ltd company, so looking for inspiration - how did you guys come up with your names?
looking on Companies house WebCheck, all the good names seem to be taken, not to mention domain names

I concatenated the first parts of my kids names together and made a word out of them.

Good job they're not called:

Wayne and Kerstin though!

I never heard of The Dragons having a problem picking a company name and I am sure Bill Gates didn't have to ask anyone for the name of his empire.... Sometimes there are things you just have to do by yourself.
