New business name...
Discussion
I'm not convinced of the value of a 'catchy', or 'novelty' name, unless you have a retail presence with all the branding elements that can bring such a thing to life. (Which clearly you haven't.)
Think 'choccywoccydoodah in Brighton.
I'm also of the view that any market will be largely local since cakes can in theory be posted, but in practice, can't.
Don't attempt to be 'clever'. Say it like it is.
So. Something like: Kate and Allie, artisan cakemakers of Carlisle.
Also, since they both have day jobs, include some copy on the website to manage expectations about how long cakes take to create.
That will be £900 please.

Design and marketing is a skill that takes time to perfect not a worthless commodity so don't treat it like one. If something is worth having it's worth paying for.
