I just wanted to get some feedback by the NS community, I want to call my works/ company you could say JB visual innovations? I feel like it is too long or I could use my middle initial as well? Please help me get some ideas to maybe refine the name or change it completely.

Do you really think you're ready to have that kind of title though?

"Visual Innovations" implies you're more of a graphic artist than anything, and I'm not sure that's accurate.

But aside from that flaw, do you think it's worthwhile to have a "company?" What are you selling? Have you sold anything prior? I'm not quite sure you're at that level yet.

The first thing i think of when i hear jb is Justin Bieber. I would assume you don't want your name associated with that.

having a "branding" for your work is very important but i wouldnt force it. come up with something you like, it sounds like you have ideas but you're unsure about them. try to pick something you know you'll like in a year cause if you just change it in a year, it was pointless making the name.

Just water mark your work with your actual name. If you start actually selling your work and get a name for yourself, slowly branch out and develop something from there.
