Top marks for sparks?
Crap sparky?

Great punchline to an ad!

Dirty boy. Get on your step!No sorry.
Was appropriate enough. Connected a live to an earth and blew the boiler stat.
Left them with no heat for the week end.
Not sure now how I got away with not doing far more damage tbh.
The original spark had used an earth wire as a live feed to the airing cupboard.
Wrapping it with red tape.
I extended the cylinder stat and 3 port wires to a new location and cut the ends off his cables.
Had checked them all with a bleeper but didn't cop this one on.
Until it was too late.

This is counter-intuitive but your company name is about how your customers would respond to it, not how you would. The amount of electricians with 'spark' or 'sparky' in their names is silly and shows they don't understand this.
Your potential customers don't know what a 'spark' is, that's trade lingo like calling a plasterer a 'spread'. If you were an electrician specialising in serving other trades, then it would make sense to use 'spark' in your name, otherwise leave it out.
If you plan to remain a local self-employed electrician, then using your personal name e.g. "John Wayn electrical LTD" as your company name is a good start given that it comes across personal and friendly. If you plan to expand and have a few sparks working under you in the future, then maybe something more generic like "Wire Installations LTD". Basically, jot down everything that comes to your mind when you think 'electrician' and pick a word that would also come up in your customers mind when they think of 'electrician' and then use that in your company name (I picked the word 'wire' in the above example).
