Title: I need a name...
Post by: non-prophet on December 05, 2014, 08:29:07 PM
for my new used car business.  Any help will be appreciated, I am torn between a couple names and not in love with any.  I only have until Monday to make up my mind.  I will have to live with this name for the rest of my days.  Throw everything at me, have fun, I want something outside the box.  Thank you, Nick

I am enjoying this thread, I have a serious problem with commitment and choosing a name for the rest of my life, not easy.  I didn't want to elaborate on my business plan, so the ideas coming in would be general.  My business plan:  $3-7k vehicles in the front line to pay the bills (maybe 5-10 cars).  Antique, classic, collectible, unique, rebuildable and restorable sold online (not for walk in customers).  Wholesale auction running between here and the south (So no ethnic names, used car dealers are ignorant, believe it or not).  Here is the list of ones I came up with, still haven't decided (No particular order):

Definitive Motors
Auto Boutique
Auto Market
Modern Auto
Modern Auto Works
Pittsburgh Auto Gallery
Pittsburgh Auto Exchange
Auto-Phile (thanks pbj)
Autonomous

If you have a variation on any of these, please feel free.  I wanted "No Market" but my lawyer shot it down, the state wants the name to sound like I sell vehicles.  Again, Thank you.  Nick

Non-prophet will probably be my LLC

I like Autophile,  or Autophile Gallery.


Why does this have to be for the rest of your life?

You can change names every month if you have the $$
