Can I do some market research?

[bunch]

Since everybody loves a good name poll.

As I mentioned a few days ago, I'm in the process of opening a virtual business center in a building I'm buying in a small town.  If you're not familiar with the concept, we'll offer conference rooms, desk space, print/copy/fax services, mail forwarding and some web/logo/advertising services to contractors, freelancers and other business people in the area.  Our biggest draw will be attorneys from the county courthouse across the street as a local ordinance prohibits them from opening any new offices on Main St.  Our concept is nothing new.  My business partner used to manage a bigger version of one in St Louis.

We're at the point that we need to pick a final name.    I won't give you the background of any of our top contenders.  Just go with what you like best.  We want something that obviously sounds professional, but nothing that sounds too exclusive and turns away our rural market.  The building is known as the "Addis" (not real name) building locally and has a giant marker stating such and the building's build date in the middle of the front.

Feel free to suggest more!

I like "business center"

I could also like "Addis business center" and "west main business center."

I don't know that "Addis and Company" makes sense. That's like saying "Empire State Building and Company". But I really like "Addis Business Center".

Agreed

I like Addis Business Center or (West) Main (Street) Business Center

[soso]

I like Addis business center since the building is so well known and business center since it says what you are doing there. Sounds exciting!

[bunch]

Addis on Main Business Center? The real "Addis" starts with an M.

[lolo]

I like West Main Business Center.

Addis Business Center - in a small town you don't need to include the street name in the business name, everyone already knows where you're located - that's the beauty of a small community.

Is "business community" as strong as "business center"?

No, it sounds like an organization that way and not a destination/collaborative space. (To me.)
