Hi all,

I would really, really appreciate any ideas - I’m taking a punt at starting a floristry business. Any potential business name ideas would be so welcome.
My name is Kate Smile

Thank you Flowers

Aurora Florealis.

Alton Flowers (actually, perfect if you live in Alton or that is your surname!).

Wow Us With Flowers.

A Kate By Any Other Name.

suggestion of Orchidaceous is brilliant!

Unless you're in the Black Country, in which case everybody will wonder what kind of a name 'Aceous' is for a person Grin Also, the name derivation of orchid is literally 'testicle', so maybe a play on 'fantesticle' or something similar please don't do that Grin An archaic name for an orchid was actually 'bollockwort' - a plant that looks like, erm, what it sounds like. If you want to relay the fact that people can rely on you to delight them, how about a slogan "Bollockwort? The ball's in our court!" ?!

Nottingham Florist would be good if you're, you know, in Nottingham.

I would never associate a pun name with an upmarket florist so think about your target market.

I like the simplicity of Flowers By Kate. But if you don't want to use your name, I would go for something like "Bud and Bloom".

Good luck

I agree - puns do not suggest upmarket. The only other kind of name worth considering is one that might suggest something about your style. I'm thinking of Wild at Heart, Nikki Tibbles' business as an example.

Our florists sell not just flowers, but plants, wreaths, xmas stock and decorations. The word garden is a bit limiting IMO

Perhaps I've got a dirty mind but I'd steer very clear of the Crimson Petal, Boukate and the Lady Garden!
