And if it ties into you, I think all the better (harder for competition to copy). I am happy you can use it Christine!

I don't speak Spanish. But I think you will want to consider a Spanish name. Another idea is that you probably want to speak to the benefit it offers - comfort, richness, decadence, etc. Or speak to colors, emotion... for example: 1. Midnight Apple 2. Dark Apple 3. Bitter Sweet Sensations Stuff like that. Well… I don’t speak Spanish. But I think you will want to consider a Spanish name.

Then I would see what is the most distinct name from the existing competition. If there is a lot of "subway restaurant" type names out there, I would go with Black Cat. Of course, if the other is true, then the more generic name is less, well, generic. Hey Priscilla – I would make sure that the name isn’t taken first.

I'm incorporating my business and was wondering if I should just call it Winthrop Subway or something more exciting like Black Cat Company, with a d/b/a. What do you think?
