Question Which business name is better? Please Vote!

Which business name is better? Please Vote?
I'm starting a web design business and am trying to decide between the following company names:
1. contour design
2. zero degrees design
3. coop design (as in cooperative)
4. float design
5. full sail design

Just to give you an idea of my company, here are two examples I'd like to emulate:
firstbornmultimedia.com
neonsky.com

They sound very generic. That's my opinion. They'll do though.

I thought about that, and it is pretty common for design companies to be named after the principal. I"m not crazy about it, but does any one else think this is a better name?

I will vote for the first one, contour design. Should also consider the domain name, i normally don't like long domain names.
