• You can go totall absurd like I did. Beleive it or not, my name on this site is a play on my company name "Rancho Calamari Productions". Honest, it sticks in folks minds.
• The Word Nerd might be good for certain markets, but do nerds take advice? It has a good sound though. What type of documents are you interested in editing? If you have speciality you'd want to focus on, the name might come from that. Or, is it just any kind?

• The Red Pen Tickmarks Sir Marksalot (I like Bic pens, you other writers can't deny, when page goes by, it looks pretty fly, with an editing mark within ...) Sorry. You'd probably get sued for that one ... Out of ideas. Hmm.

Galley Slave Proof of Concept I think perhaps you should get away from the gimmicky business names (like the awful ones hairdressers seem to like). What about "[Yourname]'s Editing"?
• I like old-school establishment-style names. Like James Q. Farknuckler & Sons, Editors. That's over the top, but you get the drift.
• Perhaps you could go with your MoFi username? And for your logo a pictograph depicting a fish with a tick coming forth from it's mouth, or such... Scales composed of jumbled alphanumeric characters...
• Keep in mind that catchy names based on a real phrase might make it harder for people to Google you up.

• A Tick in Time
• "I can right" "Literite" "WordPolish"
• 'Inksavers' is a good one. It has multiple meanings that will attract the sort of custom you want. with 'savers' in the title it also implies low cost (which doesn't necessarily have to be true) that will also be attractive.

• The Write Stuff.
• Textual healing is pretty darn good. That's a winner.
• text therapy/text therapist could work.
• textual healing! roryk wins! i'm serious. great name.
• I like 'Ms Ms.'
• You're all amazing - thanks very much! There are a lot of winners there, and I will mull them over for some time. Yay! hee hee - textual healing's a fine one - wonder about text maniac?
• Textual Healing does sound like a winner, although I do share the concern lamearse expressed about gimmicky hairdresser names (A Cut Above, Shear Delight, Haircut 100). On one hand, I'm glad no one picked Writing Academy (the one I use); on the other hand, nobody else seems to have any interest in it either!
• Text Maniac sounds like you're gonna go psycho all over the copy. Textual Healing sounds like you'll lovingly seduce it to a, um, textual climax.
• Good point, SideDish. Must-not-go-psycho, especially over "it's" abuse.

• Wow, beeswacky - you're a veritable treasure trove! Thanks! Btw- I'm only a tick *here*, so tickish names lose their punch in RL. Me own mum came up with "The Editorial We" - not bad, eh?

• Blue Line Editing.
• Heh- nice. Thanks also to silent-monkey Layne! :-)
• Hey, monkeys- in the spirit of "help me name" stuff, I call your attention to a project-naming request by One Of Us over at the Green. Got suggestions? Fetch hither le fromage de la belle France!
