I need your help. In the previous years you've always helped out and your ideas have very often been great! So I do need a little further help.

I'm preparing to launch a publishing company for music scores (at first at least). I have a few composers lined up and other ideas, working with a graphic designer, web designer (might actually be looking for that as well), but I have NO idea what to name the company.

You see, traditionally, almost all publishing houses are named after the first editor that founded the company.
Example of such editions are:
Henle, Ricordi, Schott, Schirmer, Peters except perhaps the International Music Co company...

I'm stunned and have no idea what to name my company. Certainly Editions Sideris sucks big time! Further to that I'd like to keep anonymous my involvement in the company. I remain a composer.

I hope to concentrate on contemporary classical music, firstly and then anything else, if this springs any idea. Piano music, orchestral music, chamber music, etc. but of course the life of editions is either the renting of parts of orchestral scores, and the selling of small ensembles, duets, etc scores.

So, any ideas or propositions are most welcome here.

Any other ideas, discussions, or whatever are also welcome!

Thank you

Ooh goody!
I love making names for imaginary companies, and this has to be better!

It'd be a little easier if one could talk with you in real time, as then something appropriate could be chosen easily ( irc?).
Otherwise, give me some time and I'll think up some gooduns!

I'll see, I haven't used MSN in ages.
I don't think I've used more than once irc... This is why I proposed MSN or something equally effective for me! heh...  ;D

Thanks mate!

Worked on Strangeland, Primordia, Hob's Barrow, The Cat Lady, Mage's Initiation, Until I Have You, Downfall, Hunie Pop, and every game in the Wadjet Eye Games catalogue (porting)

So, was Editions Fomentarius the final I could offer?

Man, Sideris would have been just awesome, but since want to stay anonymous...

Yeah, on its own or "Sideris International" would be an epic name for music publisher :)

Maybe Astute. It has some pretty iffy meanings but I really like certain meanings behind it such as "the intellectual ability to penetrate deeply into ideas". TBH I just wrote [forum wont let me show you] on my phone last night & wondered what it meant :P

Good luck with the name tho sir!

Tuomas

Or how about just G Clef - publishers? A logo would be easy...
