I think most would see the funny side and some are quite clever. We have a local rock band called 'Killer Hurts' which I quite like. I went through quite a few when I was trying toi find a name and still not sure how I settled on Arena as I now think it's quite non-discript, but much too late to change it now.

Depends what type of business you are in and who your target customers are, if they are mostly women like in our industry then a rude sounding play on words would i think be counter productive.

You could call yourself "filthy shag" but i don't recommend it. ;D
