We’ve got a Squeaky Clean here and it is an excellent name. I’m on the other end of the US from you so it could be fine, although I think a California Italian restaurant did make two local ones change their names.

Panestakingly Clean?

Something about “\<aches\> and Panes” with something clever in place of aches?

Bah. I didn’t mean “Panestakingly Clear”. That’s not the phrase I was going for. I meant “Panefully Clear”. I still chuckle, though, when I think about somebody answering the phone, “Glasswipes, how can I help you?”

You all crack me up! I didn’t know there was this many funny people in the world gathered together on one board, in one room, on one topic, (I know, I know, “shut up, neisha.”).

Woohoo!

You know, as an ad copywriter, I usually charge about $20,000 for a company or product naming project. Seeing as how you’re a fellow doper, however, I guess I can spot you one. 😃

Good luck with the new business!
