Sod ...sod...sod....

Months ago I was pondering (on MN) about my business name...

The upshot (after loads of help and advise) was that I should stay Childminding@Walnut Corner....and not use anything too different for the Out-of-School Club.

So Walnut Corner Out-of-school Club was born....but now the Headmaster, 3 parents and a govenor have said that we should be XXX@Walnut Corner....but not what XXX should be......the only viable suggestion was Kids/Kidz @WC

I don't like the word KIDS never mind it being spelt wrong.

Help...do I just tell them to P* off?
Or can we come up with a good (fantastic) name??
TIA

none of their business really as 'school' and 'out of school' is a generic term and open to anyone's usage

but socially I suppose it depends how much you want to be nice to them and whether their irritation at your name will die down or whether they will bad-mouth you

Why do the head and parents and governor have so much influence over what you call YOUR business?

Why can't you call it what you want? (Not being controversial, just curious!)
