This is not a real name, but when I lived in Boston, there was a story that went around that 2 of the large grocery chains were going to merge: Stop & Shop plus A & P. Yes, the new name would be Stop & P. Groan.

I have enjoyed watching a show on the Smithsonian Channel about a vintage dress shop in L.A. called The Way We Wore. Love the show!

Many, many, many years ago, in Chicago, (on 79th Street) there was a funeral home called Ketcham and Killum. A bit closer to my present home, we have a Dr. Zipper...urologist.

Our town has a beauty shop called "Yes Deere". Since there is farm country all around, reminds of John Deere farm implements.
