It would probably get you in trouble (at least here in the States) but I
myself like Cambell's Stoop . . .

Too bad you're not a transportation company:
Have Laurie, Will Travel

go with felinicity:
Cats as Cats Can

(you asked for puns, you did, you did)

you could also, for sentimental reasons, pull the manor name or a
character from your novels in progress
Or use your address: "7804 Wedgewood Street"
(sounds almost like a book, that....)

Of your examples, I like Campbell/Campbell's Inc the best, myself --
short, to the point, small pun, but, as I understand such things (and the
mileage may be different in Canada, and I might be tugging on a sock
stitched all over with red herrings, anyway) it's easier to incorporate
under your name than to hassel something fictitious. [And hopefully no
one will come ordering soup]
'Course, may be you have to name check regardless....

(yeah, re: reasons; my folks Incorporated (jahren und jahren ago) for,
less tax purposes, but overall liability issues.....)

Have fun!
May the perfect name come dropping

A man said to Abraham Lincoln, referring to the war, "Let's pray that God
is on our side."
Lincoln responded. "No, we know that God is always on the side of the
right; let's pray we're on God's side."
