My friend is a graphic designer and he is great for advice on names and logos. The logo is important I think, so think of a name that makes a good logo possible too and once you have a logo and a name sitck with it.
The name I use for my films, Zaskar, was a random choice really, cos of my mountain bike. As this was not a commercial name it didnt matter that any google for 'zaskar' gets zillions of mountain bike stuff but if it were a company name that would be bad. I did get 'zaskarfilms.com' but I would have preferred 'zaskar.com' but that was taken. My logo was done by my graphic designer friend too and I am still happy with it, get one done from a pro is my suggestion.
If I ever get my shit together and try to make money from this video thing the name I have in mind after much thought (so please no one steal it eh?) is 'frog finger films'. Perhpas odd enough to be memorable, ambiguous enough so it doesnt streotype the company and 'logoises' well too.
Congratulations on getting work, good luck
