Business name: should it be correct or sound nice?
I want to start a business called Last Minute Leis, but in the Hawaiian language the plural of lei is lei. So should I do the better sounding technically incorrect anglicized version (Last Minute Leis) or the correct less pleasing sound way (Last Minute Lei)?

If you are in Hawaii then use the correct way but if you are on the mainland then Americans don't really seem to care about if something is technically correct or not so I would go with the better sounding one. Or if you sell other Hawaiian products then Maybe come up with a completely new name that's not specific to lei.

Last Minute Leis ("Lays") sounds like quickie escort service. Is there that much demand for lei at the last minute in Hawaii? It doesn't sound like a business that will make it unless it offers more than leis.

Really? If you only heard it and did not see it what would you think? Think it thru again.
