Hello

I would like a name for a new business I want
to start up.

It would be selling coffee/lattes/cappucinos from a coffee cart in a
high volume area - all drinks, light refreshments would be take away -
no dining in.

Greetings, vickers!

In order to provide you with an excellent Answer, your clarification
of the following issues is very important:

- how many name suggestions you would like to receive for your $11.00?
- do you require domain name suggestions as well?
- if so, what do you require in terms of AVAILABLE domain names (such
as no hyphens, .com only, both .com and .net must be available, must
include a certain word(s), etc.)?
- are there any other requirements or specifications you can provide
to assist the Researcher who Answers your Question?

Thanks!

Hi JP
yes I am willing to pick a winner if nobody places an Answer - I guess
I've asked a very open question where nobody can provide a specific
answer so your suggestion is a good one.

thanks

vickers,

Pink is a bit under the weather right now, so it may be a little bit
before she gets to your Question, but get to your Question she will.

Thanks for your patience!

Does it need a name? Do street newspaper vendors have a name? Perhaps
consider a strange symbol, which would at least be a conversation
starter. Or an image or name that is massively unrelated to coffee,
like, hmmm...

There's a pasta restaurant in downtown Palo Alto called "Pasta?". I
think it was named with a contest. So..."Coffee?" ;)

.. cut it out Xarqi, you have not done nearly as well this time  as
you have done in the past particulaly a couple of weeks back where you
excelled in my opinion( the lady-managed and run lawn -cutting
busines).   There will be another dozen commenters I am sure so I
think you would need to come up with something a little more up to
your usual standards to win the "best of breed" this time around!!

.. I take it back Xarqi, perhaps you reined in your free-flowing
creativity in a bit after the experiences of other questioners
similarly seeking innovative creative business names as explained by
Missy on similar question from the 8th of April. One of those
free-loaders was an Australian which is a bit of an embarrassmnet and
aplogies to for that one which you worked hard on I know.

Thanks for the accolade!  Yeah - a bit ticked off like the others -
difference is - I can't pick up the fee in any case, not being
"blessed" by GA.
As they come to me I post 'em.  You can't rush spontaneity!

I thought about Jitterbug too - or how about "Get Nervous here!"

In the fallout of Enron and Anderson, people appreciate honesty and
things that are easy to understand more than ever. Keeping that in
mind, my suggested name is:  "The Coffee Cart"

A good name would be 'Coffee Brake', with a logo of a cup of coffee on
wheels (symbolising both take-away/time restrictions and the mobile
cart).
