Where is your family orginally from?  Then just make it into one word or sound like one word.  If your a half breed or mutt then mix them all up.

Nicely done!  I love the dainty recurves over the stocky riser designs, especially in a take-down.

As for names, it must be a name that is an extension of you and your workmanship related to the purpose of the bow.  When I made my first bow in 1994, I didn't think it would last.  I never really named it.  I killed a blacktail buck with it in 1998, so I named it Blacktail and refinished it to bear the name.  It shoots as well today as it did the day it I first braced it.

Still mulling it over.  :)  I decided to go a little deeper on the string grooves so the finishing touches are yet to be done.

Yes, I believe it was .02 on the belly and .03 on the back.

Names: RutBuster, Sweetspot (as in hits right in the sweetspot), Hammer, Thumper, Thor, DeadNutz, Heartshot, Sweetness.  Or heck if it's a smooth drawing as you say, just stick with Smooth.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.
You are never to old to learn something stupid.
