Any ideas? Originality appreciated.

[mickey]

My buddy frank currently works at my LFS, pet connection,but he is leaving in 6 weeks time to take a gamble and start up his own LFS.
All his plans are starting to come togather and the wheels are in motion,the only thing he hasn't decided on is a name for the new store, he asked me, but the best i can think of is Franks for fish tanks ,I dont think he was very impressed.
Then i came up with the aquaria super store, not bad but not what he was looking for.
So now i am asking the guys at AC for thier ideas on a new name for Franks LFS, All ideas greatly appreciated.
CHEERS

Just a fish store? We used to have a Fish and Friends. We have a Just for Pets, and a PetMax. How about Incredipet or Incredifish.

[Tyler718]

We have a lfs here. I do all my business there. How about Aqua Zoo? That is the name of this lfs.

[Tetratastic]

What about 'Totally Fintastic'? - LoL

[Awestralian]

Fishy Business.

[SBee]

I like to keep things simple....

"Frank's" sounds good to me. The name Frank, IMO, connotes an "old school" sense of honesty and integrity....no need for extras.

[optix]

"H20 life HQ"
"Aqua-brain"
"pet box"
"Aqua box"


EDIT: you guys can't bust my balls for this lol they were quickly thought up :p

[mogurnda]

"Frank who knows fish and won't steer you wrong."

[Skittyfish]

How about"Franks Fish"?
"Fishie Frankies" LOL that's bad!
"Frankies Fishies"

I'm going to bed before I have a brain fart!

[Jayhawk]

I like stores with people's names in them, so here goes:

Frankly Fish
Frank's Exotic Fish
Frank's Tropical Fish

Eventually, everyone will just say - "hey, why don't we go to Frank's tonight?"

[Dangerdoll]

how about:

Frank's Fin's
Frank O' Fin
Fintasia
Fineriffic

for a few........

[optix]

I like jayhawks idea, because there is a Jacks aquarium and pets around here that I always say "stop by Jacks on the way home" Names always work. I have a pretty original one now though.

"pet store" :D can't get anymore original than that.

[scott]

Actually optix "The pet store" is the name of my LFS lol. It was said before but I like wetter is better. Or Frank's wet world or Frank and his fish (now that one is pathetic)

[Rometiklan]

The Waterboy
That's High Quality H20
Waterworld

Pisces Waterworld
Neptune's Domain
Neptune's Waterworld
Age of Aquarius
Domain of Aquarius (or D.O.A. probably not the best acronym for a fish store, though)
Little Critters
Frank's Pets

ehhh we're naming a pet store, not a water plant :p

[carpguy]

I'm going to side with the pro-name camp, but I can't believe no one came up with Frank's Tanks yet…

There was apparently an LFS here in NYC that was just a listing in the phone book by the time I tried to find it. I always liked the name… A-fishy-anado.

[somefinnfishy]

pet smarter :D
Feeders&Breeders
Aquadic adictions
Mom&Pop pet shop
oh man I got to go to bed
Open a multi use building a bakery till noon then a pet shop till night and call it Fritters&Critters
And for the record I like frankly fish But tagging it with your name sucks when you want to sell it years latter IMO I'd play it safe and call it (your citys name)pet shop
Allso there is a lot of money in grants and loans to open shops like that in certain areas I saw a 21 yr old get 250,000 in grants and no interest loans to open a shop.

[125gJoe]

Franks
Real
Aquatic

Frank's Tanks is cute, but I agree with the naming issue. He'll have problems if he later decides to sell.

Water's Edge
Everything Fish
On The Wetter Side
The Wet Spot (though maybe not a family name ;) )

How about instead of Age of Aquarius... Age of Aquariums?

[kreblak]

Ocean's 11 (Frank Sinatra reference for Frank)
Fins to the left...(possible copyright issues with Buffet)
Jaws
Blue World
Frank's One-Stop Fish Shop
Los Pescados del Mar de Frank (excellent for TX or CA)


I like "Jaws." It's simple, and people will remember it.

[RENEGADE]

i like "jaws" and "franks tanks"
what city is the shop going to be in maybe we could tie that in the name?

[andruboz]

call the place

'Free Guinness'

but he better have some good way to console some very dissappointed irishmen.

[SwedishFish]

Fish Freaks :D

[BigFishDude]

how about fish n' cheeps ?? I could be a fish/bird combo store :)

[scott]

Fin Alley- The last stop for all of your aquarium needs.
