I'm searching for a good name for my new business, which is a veterans home I'm hoping to open the end of the year. Any suggestions?????

The naming of your business could be one of the most important decisions you will make. A name's originality and legal availability will create a real asset value of its own, as it becomes marketed and gains market acceptance.
The name you choose will become the focal point of all the benefits and features that relate to your business. Customers will be able to find and refer others to it in the future.
Since any names that are suggested here may already be owned by another party, I wanted to go a different route...
I suggest either hiring a name creation firm or get together with your friends and/or family and throw a "name party" & have everyone bounce some ideas around. Compile a listing of names that you like the best. Once you have that list, do as much free research as you can before you delve into comprehensive research.
I listed some links where you can do some preliminary name checking. However, please be aware that this is merely scratching the surface of what's out there.
Only comprehensive research will tell you if the name is truly available. But, these links are free & a great place to start, so I'd try them out first.
Comprehensive research consists of looking at marks that are similar in Sound, Appearance or Meaning in the pending & registered Federal AND State trademark files as well as the US National Common-Law files.
There are other sites that offer free searching capabilities in conjunction with their commercial services, so I'm not able to post those links due to the Yahoo! TOS. You'll also want to check domain names & yellow pages, so simply do a search for "free domain name search" and "national yellowpages" and the appropriate links will pop up.
Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!

You could name it for a fallen solider like the So and So memorial home for retired Veterans or try a patriotic approach and name it for a famous victory site or how about Victory Retirement Home - a place for veterans to enjoy the peace they so justly deserve. Good Luck with your business!

For the Love of American GI's (FLAG)
You'll want to consider getting non-profit status for this type of housing for Veterans. See if there may be grant funding available on www.grants.gov for programs relating to the military as you might be able to reduce taxation and entertain the thought of volunteers to help your cause in many ways. Just a thought.
Update: your email is unconfirmed... could not contact you. I have no other ideas for names. The right one will spark for you at the right time. For the time being, work on your business plan and focus on mission statement to guide you. The SBA (www.sba.gov) can help with FREE entrepreneural advice.
