    New Business Name Help

    So I've been a member of this forum for a long while, was inactive for a bit and now I'm back. I've ran a detailing business for several years now. I've been through my things on my journey from starting as what we consider now a hack detailer where I made a ton of money vs doing things proper where I seem to be making less. Seems like the better i got the less I made as I needed to adjust pricing etc for more time consuming jobs.

    My paperwork for the business got a bit jumbled and my only fix is to start a fresh clean slate. I'm looking for some ideas on a new name. I would honestly like to refrain from using a localized name as we have been talking about moving to the mainland in the next couple years and I would like to take the name/brand with me.

    I don't want to steer certain people away by thinking the name is to high end or upper class however I'm to the point where I want to shy away from cleaning poop diapers and spilt baby milk. I would really like to push more along the exterior side of things:

    AIO's
    1 Steppers
    Coatings
    Headlight Restorations etc.

    I'm a fan of such names as:

    Detail Werks
    Exclusive
    New Image
    Clarity

    Then comes the question of do you use:

    Auto Detailing
    Auto Spa
    Detail Studio
    Auto Grooming

    Any suggestions? BTW I'm out in Hawaii. Thanks folks

    Well a name has absolutely no relation to the type of clients and services you offer.

    You can name yourself Panks Auto Car Wash and still get to work on Bugattis and Ferraris

    Yes I currently am but because the paper work jammed up and my dad who was a partner no longer is with the business I have to shut the license down to make it right. Perfect rime for name change as I needed to order new shirts and stuff as well.
