A Proper Name
A Proper Name
A Ficticious Name
A proper name is the name of a person that will be used for the business. For example, "John Smith's Accounting" or "Susan Smith's Auto Repair". Individuals doing business under their full and proper name are not required to register their personal name as a fictitious name. If you will be operating your business under a name that is different from your own name or which does not readily identify you as the business owner, we will need to file a fictitious name with the state.
