Re: Can I use the same name for LLC and Corporation
No, the name of all LLC's and corporations must be distinguishable from that of any other LLC or corporation in Virginia. You can probably add a word or two to make it distinguishable. You can call the Clerk's Office at the State Corporation Commission to determine if the name you want is provisionally available.
