A good name + logo

Well, actually I'm out of ideas. Of good ideas for a new name for my self-owned company. By now, it is Fabian Wolf-Webdesign, abbreviated its "FWW".

I've already gathered some ideas of how to really rework my website design, based on great sites like that or this one, but the new name - and thus, the possible new CI / style - is still missing.

Does anyone have an idea where to start off with this quest?

I've already thought about stuff like "webeffekt" (already taken), "webaffekt" (doesnt sound that catchy) and other variations with "web" or "net" in it, but they all sounded kinda cheese or too artifically created.

The logo is going to evolve right after I've found some good new name, right now I'm sticking to some kind of renaissance of my very old logo - the one with the gray wolf in background, "FWW" in stylish letters set in foreground. Eg. I could re-render the wolf's head in Inkscape, just by drawing a few lines, or so.

cu, w0lf.

Naturally, I love Jesus very much. I love him so much that I'd like to crucify him all over again.

Name finding process

Well ... nice try. I've already thought of that, too.
But doesnt sound too catching to me.

Stuff I thought of already:
You have to connect the name with something you are fond of or admire. Like .. cats. Or like to look out of the window and something jumps to your mind. Like this morning: The moon still is up high, so I thought: What about Moonwalk Industries?

Some minutes later: Naah - first I'm no moonwalker, second its sounds way too much "Michal Jackson-ish". He. :D

I'm really really fond of: Usability Terrorist. But there's that "terrorist" part I fear people wouldnt like or much more: misunderstand.

Ideas by now, based on the "Usability Terrorist" approach:

- Usability Extremist .. too much
- Usability Idealist - sounds too happy
- Usability Optimist - that too. And kinda cynical, anyway.
- Usability Pragmatist - sounds .. well .. I dont know what?
- Usability Analyst - Neither am I an admirer of Freudian theories nor a wall street stock broker
