Important BC Name Rules: For BC Government name approval, a name needs two parts: a unique element and a descriptive element. The unique part can't be a common English word. Most rejections happen due to a missing unique element. For example, "ABC Consulting" has "ABC " as the unique part and "Consulting" as the descriptive part.
