Default Help Me Choose a Name

I am about to make a free website with jitzul and I can't decide on a name.
In the past I had used "Art of Indigo" and "Indigo Images", but now I am not sure if that is what I want forever........
I used "Art of Indigo" as a name for everything I was selling at the time (photography, jewelry, handknit stuff, etc.) not just photography. Now I want a name for my photography only.
My name is Indigo, so I want that to be in the name somehow.
I don't know if the name should have "images", "photography", or something else entirely.
One of my names is November, so I wouldn't mind if that fit in somewhere.
I like "Indigo Images", but I'm not sure that it is "it". I was thinking about "Indigo November Photography", any input? Tell me what you think about the names I mentioned, or think up some new ones, I'll be happy with any input you're willing to give!

Thanks, Indigo.

Well, I like Indigo Photography, because images are not necessarily photos. :-)

Thanks for the response! I like "Indigo Photography" well enough. Something about it though....... it doesn't really flow of the tongue very well........ idk......... seems like it ends a bit abruptly, what do you think?

What beautiful names you have!! Let's see...

Remember November which wouldn't be original
Forever November Photography (as in "once with November, forever November"....) Seems too long though..

So, I would probably stick with Indigo Photography as well. I know you said there was something about how it sounds. I think it's fine.. And now, since I started rhymes today... a slogan for this: 'Go Indigo" ... something like " You wanna go for quality? Go Indigo"...

Would love to see your new website once it's up! Good luck!

Thanks guys!
I like "Indigo Photography", but I might just stick with "Art of Indigo", idk yet...........

Thanks Mytusi! You don't know how much that means to me! My father's family hates my names, they always have. Before I was born my mom told my grandma (Dad's side) that she was going to name me Indigo, my grandma laughed. So they gave me a different name, but always called me Indigo. In the past seven(ish) years I've been more public about my name, most of my father's side still refuse to call me Indigo. I went to visit my fathers extended family in Germany last year, it was a nightmare, the told me Indigo wasn't a "real" name, and refused to call me by it, their argument was that "Indigo is a color, not a name".
Apparently in Germany the government decides what you get to name your kids, and what isn't "real".

I am still very proud of my names, whether "real" or not, and it means a lot to hear that someone likes them. Thank you!

I'll be sure to let everyone know when the website is up!

Really? Thanks! That's what I use right now, but I've been thinking of dropping it because I am afraid it might sound kind of pompous to declare my photography "Art"...............
