Need a name for a computer / console repair shop

[RetroRevival]

In the not to distant future I will be opening a console / pc repair shop in my local area and am stuck on a decent name to give it.

I have the following names but would appreciate it if any of you guys could help me out a little with alternatives that capture the essence of what i am trying to achieve.

Currently I have the following...

Repair-IT
ITWorks
FixIT

The business will be marketed solely towards "home" users to begin with but might venture out into the corporate market in time so this needs to be taken into consideration with the naming.

Any help you can give will be appreciated.

I'll try and come up with something later, but I'd definitely avoid anything "IT" based. It instantly sounds too businessy which isn't your market.

I disagree, TTK! People won't think their computers are in safe hands if it's been taken to "Crazy Console Chumz" or summat.

A quick Google for "console repair" comes up with names like:
Reforged
Console Doctor
Console Repairs uk
Console Kingz
Consoles and gadgets
Console Clinik
Console Repair Geeks

I would guess your primary market will be people who don't know how to fix their PCs that have had viruses and so on, even if fixing consoles is your primary interest.

Are you planning on fixing iPhones too? That's a potential revenue stream you could tap. The IT shop in my town has started doing that too.

You need to remember people will look up your company on Yell etc. and in the Yellow Pages, so it needs to be snappy, stand out from the crowd and be inviting!

OK, some ideas...
Computer and Console Clinic
Computer Entertainment Centre
Computer Kingdom (not Komputer Kingdom!)
PC Supply Zone
PC-Assist
PC, Console and Smartphone Zone
PC Mechanic

...and so on!

I know they're all pitiful, but sometimes it helps just bouncing ideas around!

What's the prize if we win?

Could try being creative.

Look at Dabs, scan, amazon, ebay etc. , none of those suggest what they sell (eBuyer is a notable exception). Try a name that suggests IT but it still a bit interesting

"Backspace"
"end of line"
"thumb drive"

I wouldn't use IT in the title either.

My guess is that the majority of non savvy home users wouldn't know what it stood for anyway, which is the market you're aiming towards to get you going.

... Unless you can play on "The IT Crowd" or something.

Try Turning it Off and On.

Computer Kingdom (not Komputer Kingdom!)

I don't know, Komputer Korrection Kingdom has definitely got a certain ring about it.

Dr Keyboard and the Electric Mayhem (a nod to the muppets)
PC Ninjas
Barry Scott and the Computer Cleaners (Bang! And the virus is gone!)

I take cheques and hard cash. Ta.

[Dogg Thang]

PC Plod.
Apples and Repairs.
Jim'll Fix It.

Sorry, they're rubbish.

I quite like PC Ninjas.

I was thinking along the lines of grease monkey, but a computer version.

Computer Monkeys just makes you sound like a right bunch on monkeys.

PCninja.co.uk - guy not fixing PCs anymore, might sell you the domain
PCninjas.co.uk - expires in December, but the page says "Services for this domain have been discontinued"
PCninja.com - has nothing on it. Whois info.
PCninjas.com - I think both the .coms were registered with BlueHost.

That's if you go with PC Ninjas...
