Sadly I think I have seen Sparkle Electric somewhere.
To be honest the name is not that important as long as its not fagot electrical etc. Whats important is having eye catching advertising and a great reputation.

Bunnies are girly right? So spin your name with a bunny theme but design your logo to demand respect:
Arc Bunny Electrical services:
"We'll take the bite out of your electrical issues"
Cute yet demands respect!

There are a lot of cute names out there, and supposed, "eye catchers", but you can never go wrong using your own name...that is what you are building your reputation on.

How about Girl Power Electric ? If you want to focus on residential customers I think this company name, along with the right slogan, logo, and marketing would attract a lot of potential women and men residential customers. There are a lot of women homemakers out there who could easily gravitate toward a woman electrician and/or a woman-owned company.
I've seen this done in LA with a woman plumber I know. Her company name was Shirley The Plumber and she did really well with that name. So well in fact, that she retired early and moved to a nice small town in northern California.
P.S. www.GirlPowerElectric.com is available!
