Default help with name please!
I am new to this community and need some help with names. I currently have a few clients which I do monthly bookkeeping for but I would like to add more services for small businesses. Everything from general office to full bookkeeping and I need a name. Here are the 2 I've been tossing around:

Carousel Office Solutions - tag line: get off the paperwork merry-go-round
or paperwork on the office merry-go-round?

OR
The Office Support Fairy - tag line: make your paperwork magically disappear.

I collect carousel horses and my family is always saying things like "The cleaning fairy didn't come today or the lawn mowing fairy is on vacation. That's where I got the ideas. What does everyone think of these names?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi - personally I prefer your Carousel name with the "get off the p.work merry-go-round". I can imagine a picture on your website of an old fashioned carousel with paperwork flying off it, perhaps towards an avatar that could represent you collecting it and looking after it for your clients! Good luck!

I like the The Office Support Fairy. I think it's important to have a sense of humor and a little magic can't hurt anyone. Right? :joker:

I also like the carousel and paperwork concept. A lot of visual possibilities with that one

Hello:
Love the Carousel Name too, especially since it is something you collect. For someone who does have a never ending paperwork load I think they could really visualize what you do this way. It would be cute for your logo and branding too.

Thanks to all for the comments!! I am 99% sure I'll be using the Carousel name. It's always a good idea to ask others in your field before you make any major decisions. Now I need to get moving on the logo!!
Thanks again everyone.

I like the Carousel theme...I'm thinking of the golden ring clients can catch when they hire you!
