This thread doesn't really need much more than that but I'll put some meat on the bones for the purpose of setting....

A while back I helped set up a charity, a little after that I helped set up a charity shop, now the charity shop wants to open a sister shop dedicated to books and music and I've been asked if I would run it.

It's very kind of them to ask me, but obviously it's a lot of responsibility; if it's a success it's my gold star, if it dies on it's arse it's my head on the chopping block and the first step to be a success is a good name people remember, which is certainly not going to be "-insert name of charity- book shop".

So, not that i think much of the whole wisdom in crowds thing, but what would you call a book shop if you had one? or if you just want to make kindly suggestions what would you suggest i called mine?

A shop that sells books...

In all seriousness, just called it like, "Your names"'s if it's not too tacky. "Pages"? I don't know, it's your shop! do what you want with it!

Burn it down to claim the insurance money! (If you make it look like an electrical thing).

Paper Cut.

Because you may just as well mention the music part too: Silence and Noise.
Or HEAVY LITERATION! Books and Metal!

Typewriter.
And every time a customer enters they should here a *tick* like those old typewriters.
Typewriter sounds nice.

Is it like Coffee of Doom, or am I not worthy of the star and cookie?

Halfway there, but not quite enough for the star and cookie... More information is needed ;)

Speaking of which, I really want to get a Hannelore Worry T-shirt...

"The Other Worlds" You know like how some people (my self included) think of books as portals to other worlds.
