This is a thread where we talk about unintentionally hilarious corporate names (the above is a race awarness charity, if you can't guess).

See? This thread is bursting with potential humour-ness!

um, not to corporate or anything, but down the street from me is the venerable institution known as: Gayer Hairpieces ( Mr. Gayer apparently no longer owns the business, but the new owners have assured me that they will be keeping the name and the lovely sign on their building)

There's a hairdressers in Hackney called 'It'll grow back', whcih is surely what you say to people who are dissatisfied with their haircut.

In Hendon:

Not Quite New For Men

A bit confusing if you didn't know there was already a shop called Not Quite New, which sold second-hand women's fashion.

Hair Apparent in Sheps Bush wins award for worst pun in shop name ever, possibly

Seimens I believe. Or anywhere else with a similar name. Makes me laugh.

All hairdressers' must have appalling puns in their name - it's the law.

Best one I've seen for pure double-take value is in Nottingham - Public Hair.

The immortal "La Coque Pharmacy" (as spotted on the way back from ATP a few years ago).

Across the street from me in Brooklyn is "Ponce Funeral Home", I should take a picture and post it. It's only a block away from "Bath Plus Kitchens and Baths"
