The naming thing is proving to be a big challenge for us, too, but now at least we have a fun dinner-party story to go along with the challenge. The building's address is #81. We were going to call it Cowork81, and decorate with photos of the number 81 in various forms. Then we found out (completely by accident) that "81" was the symbol of a motorcycle gang in the middle of a turf war in our town. So now our name is no longer Cowork81. Bullet holes are not quite the ambience we're going for.
