Help me name a financial services company!
A friend is trying to name his financial services company. It's in the area of debt management, though not one of those sleazy debt-consolidation organisations. The company will help people in financial difficulties to negotiate extended payment terms with their creditors.
The brand needs a friendly, yet professional image. Our ideas so far are centred around the idea of 'freedom': blue skies, holidays, removal of worries etc. but we're very open to suggestions.
I said I'd help him come up with a name but I'm stumped. Any inspiration?

Handshake is a good one, I'd drop the Financial.
How about something to do with a "path" --
Evenpath
Freepath
Clearpath
... or how about "light" (being the opposite of "heavy" as in a burden) --
... no I can't think of anything good for that one.
Bluesky isn't a bad name, but I can't believe it's not already tradmarked.

If he's going to be above board, and especially, if he's willing to be non-profit (which doesn't mean he can't make a decent living), he should look into associating with Consumer Credit Counseling, if they don't already have a branch in his area.
