What's the coolest company name you've come across or done work with.
I'll start with "Zebra Uno" - they do deaf awareness. Not sure what being deaf has to do with being a zebra or uno, but still cool...
Your turn

Breadlegz. Not sure what bread or legz has to do with design or freelancing, but still sorta cool.

Not the coolest, but memorable: Pink Taco Mexican Restaurant. Was just around the corner from my job. They shut down.

Apple. Even if stevie jobs named it WATERMELON back than.. they still would have been succesful anyway.

sureshot -- i was thinking that. Does the name REALLY matter when you start up. Think about Amazon, it doesn't mean anything until you associate it with the biggest online store in the world.

well most successful companies have names that have nothing to do with what they do (at least it's not obvious to the average consumer). something quick, quirky, memorable.
Nike, Reebok, Starbucks, Google, Lego, IKEA, Nokia, Volvo, Jeep, Xerox, Kodak, Pepsi, Exxon, Lexus, Motorola, could go on...
Love brand naming. Fun stuff. Although can be tricky trying to convince clients - who are more comfortable with crap like "California Trucking Services".
