What's in a name?

This morning, after I dropped off the munchkin at school, I was leisurely making my way to work (leisurely, of course, because I'm part-time and, in light of management's attitude towards me, totally committed to phoning it in from now on) and at a stoplight, I was behind a white work truck with "Mock Plumbing" painted on the back.

I'm can only assume that "Mock" is the last name of the owner, but I'm just thinking that if your last name is synonymous with "faux", it might not be the most confidence-inspiring name in construction. Might as well name your company "Acme" or something and have a coyote as your mascot.
