OK, not a shop, but the B&B called 'Nessun Dorma' at the top of the hill in Plocton always used to amuse me. clickyNessun Dorma is Italian for 'None Shall Sleep'.
Maybe it's something to do with the airstrip behind it?

Alfanatic said: My regular train journey through South Africa's East Rand used to take me past what was, I think, a steel merchant's warehouse. It was called MacPhail's.
That's not the ridiculous part.
Below the company's name, it said, including the quotes, Mac won't "phail" you. The train itself would groan as it rolled past that warehouse.
Turns out 20 years later that they still have the same tagline. I missed a pair of quotes too. http://www.macphail.co.za/They must have moved though, none of their sites is on the line I travelled on.

Hair & beauty studio near Rugby - 'Camelian'.
Is it a Camel, Ian? No - it's supposed to be chameleon, I would guess.

We've got a furniture shop here called 'People Like Us'.... What, 'people like you' come in, or people 'like' you? They abbreviate it on their website to 'Plus furnishings.' I just don't get what they're trying to say  One I did like is a chippy called 'Big George's Fishcotecque'

Execrable. Hmm, I might open a shop selling really nasty and objectionable items and call it 'Execerable'
