buisness name

[Austin Dienner]

HI, my name is austin dienner and this might be a very stupid question but i'm going to ask it anyway. I need a name for my woodworking buisness. I pretty much do whatever people ask me to, bookshelves, segmented bowls, cedar chests, stools, cabinets, checkerboards, stuff like that. I have been thinking for a name for quites some time now and can not think of one.
So once again i need a name for a custom woodworking buisness. LOL
anybody with any ideas please let me know

Austin, we named our business D&N Specialties, D for David and N for Nancy, and Specialties because we will do just about anything "special" for someone. Our interests and our products are so widely varied--custom cabinets and furniture, laser work, turning--that it seemed like the right name for us.

I could suggest:
A?D Specialties (using your middle initial for the ?)
Dienner Specialties
Dienner Enterprises
A/D or A?D Enterprises
A?D or A/D Woodworking

or go with something like Expressions in Wood, Inspirations in Wood, Wood Specialties.

Just a few thoughts off the top of my head.

Austin,

My wood business name is "From the Workshop of Ron Brese" my plane making business is just simply "Brese Plane." I think simple and to the point is best.

"AUSTIN CUSTOM WOODWORKING" sounds great to me.

"Austin Dienner Studios at <your website here>.com

Austin Dienner Studios at oaksawdustmaker.com, for example.

See the header on my website.

[Randal Stevenson]

The Board Woodworker, was always one I thought of (and laugh about).

[John Schreiber]

Dienner Woodworking or Dienner Woodworks sound like winners to me. I read recently that people associate German names with craftsmanship and engineering. Dienner looks German to me, so that might be a good way to go. (Schreiber Woodworks, hmmm?)

[Jonathon Spafford]

The Dienner Studio of Fine Woodworking?

Dienner Wood Furniture?

Dienner Woodcraft?

Austin Dienner's Workshop?

The Dienner Wood Shop?

Anyway, let us know which one you pick! BTW, do we get a commission

[Justin James]

Well, you could always wait til the last minute and improvise . . . the sawmill I work for recently bought a sharpening shop. Earlier this week I was filling out a bid sheet for a job and realized I had to have a name for the business. So I made something up--its not like were going to get the bid, right?

We got it, and I had to request they fax me a copy of the paperwork because I couldn't remember what I called it!

Maybe that isn't such a good idea . . .

What about Dienner's Dandy Designs

Might-uh figgered comin' from a southern boy eh?

[David G Baker]

Dennis,
I was thinking that it would be more of a Northern Boy name than a Southern Boy. For some reason Dandy just doesn't sound Southern. Remember Yankee Doodle Dandy?

[Nancy Laird]

David, obviously you haven't spent much time in the South. We have names down there that you wouldn't believe--just ask Bubba!! When I was working for the Navy in a disbursing office, I had a sailor whose name was--swear it --Junior XXXXX, Junior!!! Where was he from??? Alabama!!

Nancy,
Guess I have led a sheltered life.

[Nancy Laird]

Naw, David, you just have lived in Yankee-land too long. Gonna have to get you down south for a spell.
