... me and my good friend we're planning to have a coffe business but we have big problem.. we dont know what should be our business name. I have something in mind about the name but Im too shy to say it to her because she has the bigger share on our capital. Though I already suggested some terms that we can use like; "ched's coffee and donuts" because her name is Ched, but she didnt accept it. And everytime I say something about the names, she changes topic. I really don't know what to do say regarding this. Everytime she asked me about our business name, I decided to change topic too. I dont know if she noticed it... please help - and if its okay for you to suggest names it fine. My name is Michael and her name is Ched. Thanks.

I hope you will do well in your coffee joint business. It's always great to start up something of your own and make it a success. Here are 11 suggestions that came off the top of my head as I reflected on your message: (1) The Coffee Bean (2) Coffee Connection or Coffee Connexion (3) Hot Java (4) Lava Java (5) The Coffee Pot (6) The Coffee Cup (7) Cafe Latte (8) Coffee Break (9) Simply Coffee! (10) Brewed Awakening (11) The Coffee Exchange.

wow! you alot of suggestions, I think Lava java is more acceptable. We could change it or re-phrase to "Luv a java" isnt it nice what do you think?

I like lexus54's suggestions. Lava Java sure is catchy. Luv a java would also be nice. I hope your friend will like these suggestions. Good luck in your coffee business. I hope I can have that kind of business too in the future.

Luv a Java, Lava Java....they all can be used, and catchy too! Hope something can materialise for you. When your joint is set up, post the address of the coffee shoppe here, and we will all fly down and have a cuppa with you!

I know this is a very difficult thing to do when it comes to naming a business, you need something people are going to remember, something catchy but something that reflex on you as well...you could name it as something to do with the area surrounding as in the suburb, the street or something near the shop, here is a couple of names I came up with... Miched Coffee Corner, Miched Cosy Coffee Place, Friends Coffee House, Our Coffee House. I hope you come up with something nice whatever it is..Goodluck with your new venture...

No I haven't had a place of my own but at one stage I was going to open up a craft/gift shop and my neice suggested she come in it with me but also have it as a coffee shop so we were going to have the inside walls with shelving and have articles of crafts and gifts for sale even souvenirs of their liffle visit to out coffee shop so we would sort of suppliment each other but things happened and we never got to do it...good luck to you anyway....

Oh yah it is really a good business together he and she friend. If you desire to use your name I like to suggest it may be "MC Coffe & Donut" as you kept donuts with your previously proposed name. More name I can suggest is 1) Friend's Coffee Corner 2) Family Friends Cafeteria 3) S&H Coffee Corner (she and he's first word) 4) H&S Coffee Corner (he and she's firsr word) 5) Family Fair Coffee Corner (that is once if you make one family marrying ched) 6) Redmike Cafe (Coffee & Donuts)(your id's name) 7) Hot & Cold Coffee Corner This is my lucy 7 numbers name proposal and you can get an idea from above names. Have nice biz. by two your friends.

It does get hard to choose names for business so I understand where you are coming from. Sorry to say that I can't think of any good ones at the moment. However, to be honest, I wouldn't use "coffee and donuts"... sort of too detailed, you know what I mean?
