I'm sorry, but I win here. I had a project that kinda accidentally turned into a company. Never did ANY name research-- just grabbed the first thing that popped into my head... "Jobby" ( <a href="http://www.gojobby.com">http://www.gojobby.com</a> ). Turns out that Jobby (in Scotland), means "poop".<p><p>Nonetheless, we were able to sell the company after about 6 months. :-)

This falls into the category of "someone should have told them..." Run by some new arrivals to the US, I think. Somebody, their lawyer, or accountant... somebody should have told them.<p>I was cruising around an outdoor mall in Bellevue WA. There was a restaurant that... um... caught my eye. Looking in the window, I saw it was a perfectly ordinary BBQ place - bright lights, lots of people just having lunch, families, etc.<p>Restaurant's name? The Flaming Porker.<p>

My friend keeps telling me that my company has a name that is too hard to spell. "www.campusassassins.com" What you think?
