I have not offered any suggestions as far as the name goes because I was not asked.
There are a few of us working together to help get this business off and running. She called me today and told me her co-worker (some 53 year old woman who apparently thinks the word "sportin"is still cool) came up with a great name for the Para shop: Sportin Para. I told her I did not like that name. I think she should put a bit more thought into it. The name 'Sportin Para' just sounds dumb to me and is void of all creativity and originality. I mean, let's put some thought into it.
First off, the word 'Sportin' is an outdated term that was used back in the late 80s...early 90s
i.e. "Yo! I'm gonna be sportin my new addidas with my sheepskin coat today." or "Man, he's really sportin that jerri curl!"

I don't know about you all, but I don't want to be 'sportin' anything. If 'Sportin Para' is a cool name, why not consider "Get Yo Funky Fresh Para Here" store or "Bad To The Bone Para" shop? I mean it just sounds so wack...

There are so many Paraphernalia stores out there with catchy names:
The Burning Sands
The Greek Connection
Greek4Life
Simply Greek
Sportin Para ????

Anyway, I told her I would put the name out there and get other people's opinion. If I were not working on getting this business started with her, I really would not mind what she named it. Because I am.....and because one of my responsisbilities is promoting the business....I want the name to be better than "Sportin Para"
