How'd you come up with your company name?

It seems any even slightly decent company name has the dot com already taken. :/

I was brainstorming with my girlfriend at the time, trying to figure out what 'media' domains were available. Pretty much all of them sucked, but then she said "serial" and I typed in SerialMedia.com and sure enough it was available.

My .com was taken, but that doesn't bother me because I only registered it for tax reasons... Was walking on the seawall in Vancouver in November and it was your typical foggy rainy Vancouver day, and the waves were gray. Graywave.

We wanted a company name that made similiar misuse of the letter K as my online nick, and with the same medieval theme.

So Kastle Archives just fell into place after tossin' a few ideas around back in the 90s.

My company started out as a wrestling site design company (still is to a point) so I went with Slam Designs, then later when I decided to get into multimedia and promoting events, it morphed into Slam Entertainment.
