Your welcome... and it is a memorable name and when it comes to marketing getting people to remember you is vitally important.

Read this article,
How to choose a name for your detailing business
(It's actually in this "forum group" our posting to).
It talks about making it easy for your customer to say, spell, type and remember. You can make personal names work but off the cuff, Maurer is harder to say, speak, type and remember, also pronounce than say, Smith or Wilson.
Also read the other tips in the article for choosing a name...
