That's what NVA is about.

Nothing wrong with that but surely you want something that trips off the tongue and, preferably, does so in different languages. I suppose Exemplar wouldn't work?

For me, this part of the NVA range has a utilitarian edge...I want to capture that

I think we all need to remember that without you two guys the NVA brand would cease to exist.
Whatever you need to do to move NVA Onwards and upwards is fine by me - apart from the prices of course!

I always thought The Jam was a shit name for a band but it didn't stop me selling my teenage soul to them for years. That 'brand loyalty' has stayed with me into Weller's present day, commercial and critical Indian summer.

We're getting a puppy, it was a mistake to look here for names.

I know I'm going off the main topic but I saw the Jam on their very first UK tour at the Liverpool Empire, they were poor and I'm being kind with poor. That didn't put me off their music just their gigs, many years later I saw Paul Weller at the MEN and that was OK but no better than OK. Back on topic I don't think the name of an artist or group is anywhere near as an important as it for a product and I have expressed my thoughts on the name changes so I won't bore anyone by repeating myself
