Naming my business-opinions/ideas please

[Watercolours272]

I'm in the early stages of setting up a small business selling floral watercolor paintings. I'd like to incorporate my late mum's name which was Dorothy May. Her surname started with a D initial. Ideas so far are:

Dolly May designs
Dolly May florals
Dotty May designs
Dotty May florals
DeDe Maydesigns
DeDe May florals
Dorothy May designs
Dorothy May florals
Didi May desings/florals

(are you sensing a theme here 😄) Many thanks.

I think one of the main challenges is finding a name with an available URL for a website and one that isn’t already trademarked from experience. They are all nice names. I have a relative with those names too!

Dorothy May designs flows the best, but @fiorentina has a really good point about seeing what website domain etc you can buy first

Dorothy May Whitten is a dhalia too 😁

Thanks everyone. I wasn't planning on setting up a website just selling on etsy and at local craft fairs. Off to do some Googling!

i don't like Dolly, but Dorothy May Designs sounds good

Dolly-May Floral Designs

Another one for Dorothy May.
Good luck in your new venture!!

I thought Dolly Mae Florals rolled off the tongue best.

Dorothy Mae Designs sounds best to me

I like Dorothy May Design.

The floral is too specific and may put people off unless they are a big fan of florals. Dolly\Dotty May brings a certain image to my mind (I'm not going to elaborate before I get flamed). Dorothy can bring balance to the May and quite like that.

Thanks everyone. Dolly/Dotty was her nickname (quite common for that generation I think).

CuriousaboutSamphire that's interesting, I might try and incorporate that into my logo.

Dorothy May Florals

Dotty Designs.

Dorothy May Botanical Designs

I would go for something more unusual as Another Dorothy May will come along and set up something called Dorothy May .... blah blah.

When I set up my business a salon in the USA used the same name and there was confusion.
