Name!!!

First off let me just say I hate name issues!  I loved naming my children.  Jeez, I could probably give someone a list of baby names right now, names that I never used.  But my photography "business" AKA hobby needs a name.  Here is the list I have used so far.

Hello, it shouldn't be THIS hard to decide on a name.  Why in the world am I so indecisive?!?!?!

Here are some more names that I have now added to the maybe list.

I even thought I should add one of my kids, but that doesn't seem right.  Leave out 5 and add one.  No.  So what am I going to do.

Most of my favorite photographers use their first and last name.  It looks normal.  Now a few do make up a name.  I know I want to use my first name (even though I hate my first name).  The other part... I don't know.  I have been through a divorce before and I don't want to just use my husband's last name just in case.  I know that sounds bad, but I don't want to have to change my business name again. 

I also don't want to upset anyone. 

With that being said.  My favorites are.

Malania Michelle Photography (it's ok, but sounds like I am in trouble)
Photography By Malania (maybe)

That's all I kinda like right now.  Not in that order either.. 

Hopefully I decide soon, because my website is due the first of January.
