Company name
I've started a 911 used parts and light restoration company.

Which do you like better for the name?

"True 6" if those are the only choices.

Wait, two of us have said True 6 but there is only one vote for it.

I prefer it spelled out "TRUE SIX" sounds more sophisticated, while TRUE 6 sounds like a shortcut....not something a restoration shops wants to be associated with.

I voted "True 6" because seeing the numeral seems to better equate with the # of cylinders - for some reason.

In other words....it's more true to the nature of the business.

YMMV.....

Good luck, Shaun!

In my mind, True 6 offers more options for graphic design and branding.

Why can't you use the two interchangeably? Use one for print/type (True Six), and the other for logos (True 6)?
