If people know you for your flowers that you do at home I would suggest you do as Zoe suggests and keep the same name.

If you want a completely new start then how about

Okay Bokay

Do you have a theme!?

Well I work in a shop atm so people know me from there, I tend not to do alot of work from home, mostly weddings as i'm usually quite busy at work with other things. I just think it looks funny seeing my own name on a card lol

The shop front will be white with black lettering, going for quite a modern trendy sort of feel as I'm only 26 and dont want it looking oldy worldy. its on a high street across from a wedding shop, next to a kilt shop and up abit from hairdressers.
My partner wants me to call it the wee flower shop, but I think it sounds abit like you'd expect an old lady to be working there lol

I dont really have one i prefer, i'm more of an aqua rose kinda girl i think

is it a small shop then? i dont really like the wee flower shop, to me it sounds like a urinal, cause wee is associated with pee really? I know you are in fife but still. anyway if its small then what about using yours name like, sarahjanes flower box, or sarahjanes flower den, or something like that but if its modern then i think Designs by Sarahjane sounds better

Keep the same name Sas...There's really no point in changing it (unless you're getting hate mail for some reason). It's a lovely sounding name so i would stick with it.
