Naming Considerations for Your LLC
Naming an LLC after yourself can be inexpensive and easy to set up, while still providing liability protection. However, the name may not be memorable or suitable as the company grows.
Use of Your Name for Your LLC
Should I use my own name for my LLC? Using a personal name for an LLC provides some benefits, including ease of getting a business bank account approved. However, the name may not be memorable or appropriate as the company grows. An alternative is legally using your name but operating publicly under a different DBA name. Consider options carefully when deciding.
Guidance and Expansion
It doesn’t hurt to have legal guidance about naming your business. Consider seeking out the expertise of an attorney or other qualified professional to help you double check you’re covering your bases.
Don’t box yourself into a name that won’t accommodate future expansion. Pick a simple business name to call and remember in various languages to take your brand to new markets.
