|  | OVNIFX EXAR pedals rep for North & Central America | | Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: PDX, OR | | The way I handle this sort of thing is just start jamming names into the "is it taken" engine (e.g. on Network Solutions) and on Google. I start off with just one or two ideas, but the more variations I think up, the more new ideas occur to me, until I have like a hundred that are already taken, half a dozen that are available, and one of those is a good name.
A different approach from the literal names you've got is the random-but-easy-to-remember made up words like "Zzounds".
Bizzong
Quarp
Beeble
Katang
Foop
Padonk
etc.
Looks like "PartsAhoy.com" is available.  |

im a fan of the band "3" but even i take like 20 minutes trying to find their site.
other than that, i will think it over and post some thoughts when they exist. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: La | | | Thanks guys...I am really trying to be google friendly and have a great name at the same time. Also something that could turn into an actual brick and mortar store in 5-10 years if all goes well.
Already doing great in its first year with an ebay store. I can't hide the money from Uncle Same anymore. So I am incorporating next week.
The next step will be to open an online store apart from ebay in Jan 2010.

You just need a short, simple name, like The Tone Yard, or some random musical term, like Flat 7th or something.
