[QUOTE="Fast Learner, post: 404359, member: 649"] Hmm. I think you're really missing out if you don't put the word "game" or something similar in the name. If there was only one hardware store in town, they had the word "hardware" in their name, and you were starting a new hardware store, would you work to keep the word "hardware" out of it? How about if the only other book store had the word "book"? Seriously, being able to immediately figure you what you do is extremely important for your name, whether it's on the store, in the phone book (for heaven's sake), listed as a donor to a charity, in the url of your website, or what have you. If you have the word "game" or some variation in your name you'll be able to take advantage of it all the time. Otherwise you'll just be making people guess. In my town we have the Game Depot, Gamer's Edge, Waterloo Games, and about 15 other game stores, all but about 1 or 2 of which have the word "game" in their names. No one is pissed at the others for being sensible. [/QUOTE]
