Having recently returned from a Florida vacation, the land of boutiques, and, roadside businesses, I deem myself worthy of judging these places by their names.
Some words used in business names just bring certain connotations to mind, and, it can be enough to make me not go inside and shop.
Anyway, my list of terms to avoid when naming a business:
1. “Today’s”
2. “Modern”
3. “Classy”
4. “Savvy”
5. “Swanky”
6. “Lady”
7. “Tidy”
8. “Charming”
9. “N’ Things”
And, finally:
10. Anything with a “K” where a “C” belongs - If you own “Kountry Klutter Kakes”, I will Kut you.
