why would you want to change it
That's the whole point of this discussion. If the company has an adequate (or good) reputation, why or why not, would you change it?
Would you change it just because you're proud of your current company and want to emulate that reputation? Would it be for "pride" in your current company name? Do you think you would lose customers from the purchased company if you changed the name? etc.....
Or, would you think YOUR company name would carry over into another market and you would actually GAIN market share, even though most of those clients have never heard of you?
This is what I'm saying, "What are your thoughts about pros and cons of changing the company name"?
Thanks
