I need help naming my ironing business

Throw them all at me!

Is it better to include town name in the name? I don’t want to have anything with iron maiden or iron maid etc as there is already a local business with a name on that theme.

A long time ago I ran an ironing business. I named it the Iron Lady😁

@KatnissMellark
As soon as I read the title 'Flat Out' popped into my head too!

mable a friend suggested the Iron Lady too but Mrs Thatcher wasn’t very popular round here so we decided it might do me more harm than good Grin

Pressing Business

Pressed for time

Smooth Operator

Amibeingnaive · 24/12/2018 20:42

Dramatic Iron-y

Isn't it Iron-ic?

Iron Lady (not one for the socialists)

Stop the press

Pressing matters.

I'm so sorry

Amibeingnaive · 24/12/2018 20:43

Omg. You have to use Smooth Operator.

It makes me want to set up an ironing business just to name it that (I don't even do my own ironing - it's outsourced to a much less imaginatively named enterprise).

All Ironing Steam Service

because A comes first when a search lists results and it does what it says on the tin, I agree a location could be useful in there too.

6demandingchildren · 24/12/2018 20:46

Iron maiden

Womantheonlykind · 24/12/2018 20:46

How do ironing services make money? Our local service does a bin bag full (up to 6kg) for £25, that seems ridiculously cheap to me because that would take me donkeys to do!

@Watto1 You get my vote!

Where do you live?

Impressive Ironing

I actually live in NI and have been very tempted to call it “Norn Iron” Grin but there are families locally with a surname very like “Norn” and I think I might be confused with them and also “Norn iron” seems to be part of the name of a few jokey piss taking pages on Facebook so I suspect my business wouldn’t be at the top of any internet searches.

DingDongDenny · 25/12/2018 11:22

Please call it Norn Iron. I'm from there and that really made me laugh. I think a good pun name will get shared more so people will notice and talk about you.
