I always wondered if the brains behind the refrigerator company SMEG knew what they were doing when they named it, i get hours of fun asking my friend who has one if he keeps his cheese in it.
Other favourites are Schiit Audio Europe and before a hasty name change, the South Hants Institute of Technology always made for a great acronym.
Companies House has put out the names of 87 businesses whose names were too rude to be allowed onto their register, such as Royal Nuts Ltd, Purple Helmet Bikes, Cat Shit Coffee, Crap Ltd, Slag Ltd, Tits On Bikes, Cocks On Socks and AnusBeauty.
Also sent back to rethink their names were Top Dogging Ltd, FashionFuckery, Toss Charity, Panda Knob Ink, Knickers Knackers Knockers, Stop Making Everything Shit Ltd and TittyGoHard.
Alas we will never find out the exact nature of the service provided by TittyGoHard because as a Companies House spokesman explained: 'A company must not be registered by a name if, in the opinion of the secretary of state, its use by the company would be offensive'.
So thanks to the secretary of state we won't be using Panda Knob Ink, drinking Cat Shit Coffee or buying our Knickers Knackers or Knockers all in the one place anytime soon.
