Was sat having coffee and saw van for a company called ‘Ghost Maintenance’ providing maintenance services for landlords. Their logo was literally a clipart, cartoon ghost. No wordplay. Just ‘Ghost Maintenance’.

was it the guy’s surname?
did he just really like ghosts?
can they also maintain your ghosts?

I can’t find it online and I am gutted

Have you ever seen an odd company name? I don’t mean a pun like ‘curl up and dye, just something…odd?

A friend of my husband's started an escape room business which he called Chicken Banana, on the basis that it was a v memorable name. He's not wrong!

Ah sadly not @CherryRipe1 there must be a few of them about unfortunately for them! Imagine it went down extremely well in a school setting!

There’s a local coach company that was used for school trips when my kids were younger.

It just never felt right, watching the little’uns climb aboard a bus emblazoned with the company’s name IMPACT. 😳

There’s a driving school local to me with exactly the same inappropriate name!

I can only think that vehicle-based companies calling themselves 'Impact' have thought of the figurative meaning of the word whilst completely ignoring the literal meaning. In reality, it's not much better than calling your bus service or driving school 'Carnage'!!
