For those photographers who choose to use their name for their photography business, has anyone come across a situation where their name would collide with someone else already in the business?
My business is John Cruz Photography and serves the Greater Toronto Area. At some point, I would like to relocate to Vancouver, but there is already a more established business, Jonathan Cruz Photography there. Understanding that what I receive may not be legal advice, would it be best to use another name to prevent myself from running into any problems in the future or is my name (John Cruz) enough reason to distinguish myself from a similarly-named photographer and keep my business name?
