Tit Technology, Purple Helmet Motorbikes, Royal Nuts Ltd, Cat S**t Coffee and  Feck I.T. Networks Ltd were among other firms forced to choose an alternative name.

A spokesman for Companies House — the UK’s register for limited firms — said: “The index  is a publicly available statutory register and it’s important that it is not abused by being used to register offensive names.

“A company must not be registered by a name if, in the opinion of the Secretary of State, its use by the company would be offensive.”

Other businesses with a quirky name falling foul of the rules were Crap Limited, T*ts on Bikes, Cocks on Socks and AnusBeauty.

The owners of Panda Knob Ink  also had to go back to the drawing board.

These 10 words sound very rude but are actually NOT at all
