From the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Title 28, Chapter I, Part 75.6(c) (with emphasis added):

"If the producer is an organization, the statement shall also contain the name, title, and business address of the individual employed by such organization who is responsible for maintaining the records required by this part."

This, it seems to me, makes it pretty clear that the custodian's name must be an individual's name, and not smply a DBA of the corporation in question.

Now.... keep in mind that we are about to see (at end of June, from what I hear) new regulations published for public comment, in light of the statutory changes made by Congress under the Adam Walsh Act, which was signed into law on July 27, 2006.

After the public comment period, the DOJ will read and respond to the public comment, and finally publish the final revised regs to the CFR.

IMO, the item quoted above from the CFR is unlikely to be changed when the DOJ issues its new proposed regs.... I suppose it's conceivable, though.
