Choosing a Company Name

Several regulations can affect your choice. For example, all company names must end with the words 'Limited', 'Unlimited', 'Public Limited Company', or their abbreviations or Welsh equivalents.

Certain companies may apply for exemption from using 'limited' – contact Companies House (See Link) for further information.
