Garden Center = Greenplace

Sandwich Shop = Deleatful (combines Deli and Eat and Delightful)

Woodworking Shop = We Wood

I have worked a bit with the developmentally disabled, the learning disabled, and victims of traumatic brain injuries. I've also worked with stroke victims, people with cerebral palsy, and people with neonatal brain damage. What Bron says is *so* true. The words must be pronouncable, and not demeaning. Cleverness is nice, because it can help with memorization, and it can please some folks, both the employees and their customers, but it's not essential. I too like Seeds, Crumbs, and Splinters for their simplicity. Greens might work for the garden center, too.

Thanks for the challenge...
