    Let me get your thoughts

    Im tryn to come up with a name. I was oroginally gonna go with something to the effect of John Holmes Balls and Morphs. (Yes my name) But the more I though about it the more I thought about not wanting to have to awnser all the questions of if im related to John Holmes and ll that. If you dont know who he is google it and youll see why. So Im thinking of using the name EMS Reptiles. EMS stands for Emergency Medical Services. Im a former EMT and plan on finishing out my paramedic. I figure it would make more sence to use the reptiles instead of ball pythons just incase I do grow onto more then just BPs. Now im not ready to breed bot I do want to have something for when that time comes. For a Logo I would use the Star of life with something like a pied as the snake. What are your thoughts?

    Choseing a name is the hardest part of starting any business. But whether you use your name, a nick name, initials some other name it has to be something you can identify with..

    so Like saying JH Reptiles or Holmes Pythons.. it's going to need to be something that strikes an emotion with you..

    Yeah... That original name would come up in some odd web searches and it's doubtful you'd be interested in fielding some of the associated inquiries.

    I like the EMS Reptiles. I like JH Reptiles, too. Both give you room to expand to more species.

    You could play off the fact that you have the same name as John Holmes.....something like "Legendary Balls" maybe??

    I like the JH Reptiles as well. Or something with Johnny. It's a popular play on words.

    I like the ems, but it may throw a lot of emergency reptile situations your way. You may be able to help, but it seems like it could be difficult.

    UMMMMMM on of his most popular "characters" was named Jonny Wadd......nuff said there. I used to do out bound phone sales so Im used to the questions. Not to mention Im the 4 so I get asked alot. Hence why I go by Jake. I wouldnt mind IF I did get called for Emergency herp calls if needed. I like Legendary Balls tho....hmmm
