To ban DP from calling a food van this

[KnittedC]

DP, a chef, is looking into opening a food business; and thinking about a gourmet food van selling hot and cold sandwiches etc. He has mooted the following as a potential name... 'In Bread'.

I think (hope!) he is joking as it's the worst name I've ever heard, but he thinks it's funny. WIBU to LTB if he ever actually did it?

Sounds good to me.

Short, memorable, funny. What's not to like?

I quite like it!

Also 'bread with stuff in it'?

made me laugh - sorry!

I think it's funny

There used to be a snack bar round here called Sam Widges'

I think it closed down around 10yrs ago but I still remember the name because it made me smile.

A bit like the Opticians called Seymour Clearly.

I like in bread!

It's funny but a tiny bit wrong.

At least it would only make people look twice at the staff, rather than the food. I saw a catering company van the other day bearing the name 'Deja Vu'. Is the food leftovers from a previous buffet? Does it make a comeback after you've eaten it?

I think it's brilliant, I'd go with that name

It might depend where you live. And if DH is local.

It depends. Does he look like he might be?

Oh god IABU aren't I?! I thought people would be more about it but if you all think its funny then perhaps I can concede it is quite fun.

Oof, I'd expect the sandwiches to be a bit...funny..Like the royal family?

i think it's clever. Catchy and most importantly memorable.

YABveryU! People will remember a funny name, maybe even tell their friends and family.

It's wrong but funny :)

It's not particularly clever. Especially if he's thinking of going upmarket with "gourmet" food.
I wouldn't be offended, but I'd assume he was a bit of a dick, sorry.

I like it. My sympathies, though. My father spent most of my childhood threatening to call our house Dead Opposite. Local cemetery was over the road.

It's funny but I don't think I would associate it with gourmet food.

Fine if your business is a bit of a joke, like pissed bloke after pub food, but not for good stuff.

Doesn't say gourmet to me. And although I might do a half-smile it would be one of those that becomes less funny the more I think of it.

Now if he called it The Hamwidge Van.... :o

No OP - you're quite right!

To be fair I wouldn't associate any kind of van with gourmet food

But I still think it's a great name.

Made me giggle hides behind sofa

If you were in Scotland he could name it 'Piece Man'

I like it. As long as the branding surrounding the name and the look of the van is good, then there's no reason it wouldn't work.

I've seen one called Brimful of Rasher, which I love.

Also the one in the B&Q car park near me is called the Paddy Shack and the sign outside says "Quick snack? Paddy Shack!" which always makes me smile!
