Name my company?

[Oblomov26]

Please would you all help me come up with suggestions for a company name. I know many of these threads have been done on Mumsnet before. You are all so witty and creative!

So this is only at the planning stage.
I'm going to set up a side business, a little hussle, alongside my main job, which is accounts.

I'm going to offer monthly payroll only , to neat and tidy companies, who are compliant and organised, so I don't end up with tricky payrolls, nor hospitality nor eg nursing homes that have high staff turnover, unorganised late submissions etc.

I am qualified and have been doing accounts and payroll for like 30 years!! So I reckon I can do this.

I wanted the first word to be Payroll.
So It was obvious what the service was.
Payroll Precision - only that's no good because precision is too hard to spell.

something similar?
suggestions please?

I think there's a balance to be struck somewhere, though. Whilst I agree that you can limit yourself and make it more difficult to branch out, I think a bit of acknowledged 'ownership' of your core purpose in your name doesn't go amiss, and people know where they are.

Indeed, it can work the other way whereby people wanting a specific service will deliberately choose the company that definitely does offer it, rather than one that's a bit more general and vague that might offer it.

I'm now having fond memories of the middle of the last millennium when my parents started their own business. They deliberately avoided choosing a witty or off-the-wall name and called it (e.g.) Littletown Music Shop, figuring that, if people wanted to find if there was a music shop in Littleton, they would never think to look for 'Sounds Amazing' or 'The Band Stand' or whatever in the wider area's phone book!

No offence to OP, but I'm guessing that her business isn't likely to grow quiiite as big as Apple!

PayLoad

Utter rubbish

How does that tie in with payroll? Sounds much more like a waste collection service.

Remember the old tv show “the house doctor”? Well Anne Maurice wasn’t a doctor but it worked.

a pp mentioned “payroll doctor” which i think is a great name! It’s different but memorable and I think you could totally use it.

Maybe a bit of reverse psychology, something that leaves a mark?

Stick it up your pay roll

Who gives a payroll

I'm not going to payroll over for just anybody

Rollie-pay-poorly

Do you have an idea of who your first client might be ? If you can visualise their decision maker, what would attract him to your business ? What problem of theirs would you solve. So for example would they value you being local, or being a specialist, or being small and focused . I like the idea of a brand ( Panda!) but I would avoid anything too flippant or silly because payroll is a serious business !
