Question Advice on business name and tagline

Hi everyone,
I thought this was the easiest part for me but i've since found another company holds the same name which means I have to change mine before I can register my business

This is what I had come up with:
"iVirtual" as the company name and "Your own personal assistant without the price tag" was to be the tagline.

I'm pretty happy with the tagline but wanted to see what some of your thoughts were on it...

But for the company name I wanted to keep iVirtual but was thinking maybe adding "assistance" or "services" or "solutions" to it. The problem is I didn't want a long winded name. The i represents my first name being Itang and then Virtual.

Anyway I'd love to hear your thoughts to help me decide!!!
Thanks in advance!

I like iVirtualAssistance, and I think it's memorable. For your tagline, I'm sorry, but to me it says you work for free. I know what you mean by it, but that's what came to mind first.

Good luck with coming up with something great!

I have to agree with April. iVirtualAssistance is great (if it's available as a domain name, I would grab it up right away!). But the tag line doesn't really say what you mean, I don't think. How about "Your own affordable personal assistant" or something like that?

I never really thought of it like that - will have to brain storm a bit more here.
Is it really necessary for a tagline?? Maybe I can come up with that later...

But I think I will go with iVirtual Assistance.

Thanks for your thoughts!

How 'bout 'Your personal assistant with an affordable price tag" or some variation thereof...
