A. There are restrictions on the words you may use in your DBA name. In addition, you cannot use words that may mislead the general public into believing the company is something other than what is being portrayed by the DBA name. For example, you may not use corporate name endings such as Inc., Incorporated or Corp. if the company is not filed as a corporation. Additionally, you may not use Limited Liability Company or LLC if the company is not filed as an LLC.
