What's in a Name?

I always struggle with my business name, Flush Designs. I often wonder if I should change it. To what, I don't know. I always have to repeat it at least 3 times when telling someone about it.  "What is your business' name?" 
my reply: "Flush Designs"   they say, "What?"
I say, "Flush Designs"   they say "Flesh Designs"
I say, "No.... (sigh) Flush, like in Flush a toilet, Designs...." 
they say " Oh "the flush designs." I say " No just Flush, No the" 
they say, "Oh cool...."

I am not so excited to have to explain my business name in relation to a crapper. :(

This happens more times then not. When I thought of the name I was thinking a Flush of color or like a rush of pride or a design that is so perfect it is "totally flush". Now I am not so excited over it and can't decide if it would hurt or help my business to change the name.... I think it is the new years feeling that causes us ( well me) to think of change and what I can do to better my business and myself. 
 Any thoughts from my oh so avid followers.... I know there are at least 2 of you. :) 
Do you like the name Flush Designs? I guess it depends on what else I would change it too...
Happy New years!!!
