I think there was a study that read that most companies that are named after people's names or really authentic sounding were pretty successful, whereas some that use -care, ambu-, life, usually dont do well.

Your gonna have to site a source to make a claim like that. Or someone else can, I don't particularly care, but thats a pretty open statement.

I heard it from a friend that read it... I'll ask him if he has a URL or site where that was read. ^_^
 
A source would be good but it sounds reasonable.

Long time players around here include Bowers and McCormick.

The funny thing is then you dive into Orange County and the respectable players are the ones with the generic name, such as Care and Doctors.

Care Bears?? :P
 
Gentle Care Transport (yellow and red units) some still said "litter van" on the side.
 
One of the biggest services in my home county is Mutual Aid Ambulance Service...

It sounded cool and official when I was a kid, but now it seems eh.
 
We are the Stevens County Sheriff's Ambulance. I get asked A LOT if we only transport prisoners.............
 
My personal non-favorite is "Chores & Errands Ambulance Service", near Richlands, Virginia. It's a half-assed convalescent service, and I've personally witnessed them smoking in their ambulances. It was started by some guy who had a "honey-do" service, and decided to carry the name over when he began his horizontal taxi service.

here in jersey i've seen Friendly Care, GEM, LifeStreams, AMBICAB, Medi-Taxi, Trans-Med, People Transport, Sunny, Virgo, Bell Medical, and my personal favorite FUCHS EMS. I'm sure there's more to see and I shall post more if I do. Btw Bullets I actually used to work for Always Caring or as we called Never Caring, but the decussion about them is a WHOLE new thread.

Lynch. Sure, it's a vanity name, but as I used to tell the nurses when they asked how to spell it, "Lynch, like the verb."
