Regina Hobbs

Regina Hobbs sounds like a straightforward personal-name company, the sort used by a lawyer, consultant, accountant, or boutique service. By our assessment, that is its main strength: it feels accountable and immediate, as if one person or a small team stands clearly behind the work. The drawback is also the usual one for this type, because the name gives away almost nothing about what the company actually does. In practice it is the kind of label that works best once you already know the field, and less well when you are trying to compare options from scratch. It sits closer to a private practice than a retail brand, so the substance has to come from reputation and referral rather than from the name itself. Regina Hobbs is clean and credible as a company name, but it stays deliberately spare.
