Okay, team...I still go 'round and 'round about this naming thing but everyone keeps advising me to really 'like' the name so I want to LOVE it, first.

Everyone has been super kind in responding to my idea on my proposed company name. I've narrowed it down and I'm only 'in love' with one...so I need your feedback, VA Team!

At first, I was going to go with 'Evergreen Virtual Solutions'...'Spruce Up Your Business', but the more I thought about it, the more the word 'Evergreen' reminds me of a major hospital in a city close by and I don't want to associate myself with a medical business. Make sense?

I thought of this: "Emerald Virtual Solutions" - 'your virtual jewel admin!'

Okay, so I'm not convinced about the tag line so much but I love how the word Emerald falls just in line with the Emerald City (Seattle) which is where I will be offering services to prospective clients.

Any other ideas?

Thanks for ANY honest feedback!

I like that very much, Kathya. And I really like the "virtual jewel" as well.

Sometimes people advise not to use a location in your business name - in case you move. But with Emerald, it's not just a location - you could use that name anywhere. The double meaning with where you live is bonus.

Thanks, Deb! Good point. I am happy you like the name, too! :-)

I liked Evergreen VS....but really, really like Emerald VS!

I also like "virtual jewel."

I think Emerald sounds great! Definitely lends some logo pics to mind.

I like both! I like Evergreen a little better though I think. But Emerald can definitely be branded easily.

I really liked Evergreen, but Emerald is really good too. Stick with what you are comfortable with, it's a strong name that's catchy too.

Good luck with the final decision.

I voted for Evergreen before, but Emerald is good. I like that you are able to incorporate the words 'virtual gem' in your tagline, I think that is very unique.

I like Emerald, especially since it relates to your location. Using virtual jewel is very clever. How does this sound "Emerald Solutions...a virtual jewel"? Good luck.

Hi Kathya

My vote is Emerald. I especially liked the way Erin put it together, "Emerald Solutions...a virtual jewel". Good Luck
