I snooped around on wiki, and turned up that "Cyprus is the mythical birthplace of the Greek goddess Aphrodite, of beauty and love, also known as Kypris or the Cyprian." Maybe you could use the goddess of beauty connection in your name somehow?
Just a thought,
Tort

Well, it was just a thought. Apparently, a really, really common one . . .

Back on topic:
OK, so "Aphrodite" is out. How about some other inspiration from Greek mythology?
"Helios Detailing: We make your chariot outshine the sun."
Good luck settling on a name,

Tort | Helios was an airways that had a terrible accident 2-3 years ago that it was the biggest in the Greek and Cypriot history so it is better to avoid it as much as possible.
I thought something about "SPARKLE & SHINE" Luxury Car Care Center.
what you think about that? | |

I'd save "reflection perfection" for a tag line, not a name. I like the "Sparkle and Shine" name but I'd take the word "luxury" out of the name and use it in my description of the business unless you only plan on doing "luxury cars".
"Sparkle & Shine Auto Detailing Center". We give your car the luxurious reflection perfection that it deserves (or something like that). Or save the "luxury/luxurious" for a description of interior treatments and "reflection perfection" for exterior treatments. | |
