Every business needs one or more federal, state or local licenses or permits to operate. Licenses can range from a basic operating license to very specific permits (e.g. a permit to sell alcohol). Regulations vary by industry, state and locality, so it's very important to understand the licensing rules where your business is located. Not complying with licensing and permitting regulations can lead to expensive fines and put your business at serious risk.

I believe that you're asking about a DBA Name (DBA = Doing Business As). Though you may incorporate or begin a business using a name like 'Ted's Warf and Fishing Tackle, LLC', having your clients write that on every check would suck. You register a DBA for the company (Ted's Tackle) and you can accept checks and conduct other business using that name.
