LMAO
I was actually thinking that the results would be more interesting if words like "limited" had been excluded

Company services management limited would be the perfect name

I don't know why you're getting downvotes, maybe the statement is expressed a a bit too absolutely, but with large datasets and few dimensions there are almost no downsides to flexible regression approaches (LOESS, splines etc.) There is no reason to fit an exponential regression with this much data.

The words are randomly placed in the UK. I fit them in a UK map because all the company names are from the UK and the Python library made it super easy.

Is there a geographic angle or is it random? I.e. when I'm looking at Scotland, are those the words most commonly used by businesses in that region or are they just randomly there?
I ask because there are some puzzling things, like "Kent" in NI and "Scotland" in Kent.

It is an interesting question. INC will be in there but it only has 5,000 occurrences so it will be much smaller than LTD with 2,293,180 occurrences. INC is not typically used in UK company names, probably more common across the pond.

Did you hear about the Jewish lesbian in a union that makes $500k, who’s also gay and a Catholic Hispanic transgender left handed Texan.

Why it counts LTD but not INC?

All who live outside US believe:
- 95% of US population own multiple guns
- 95% of US population live in a mix of Texas, Alabama and Florida
- Americans eat only cheap and ugly burgers and drink cola
- newborns get a car (and a gun) right in a hospital
- no one has medical insurance and people go bankrupt right after first visit to hospital
- everyone has a lawyer
- doctors and dentists fly their own jets and own mansions
- IT folks (developers, engineers) work from beaches 2 hours a day and have 7 digit salary
- there is no vacation
- everybody work 80 hours week
- police randomly shoot people. Each cop needs to shoot at least 5 citizens every day
,and so on and so forth… I’ve heard so much nonsense from folks abroad about US…

Your data is what I remembered. That throws this survey to be questionable.

Hi everyone!
This is my first activity as a non-lurker, I hope I'm doing right.
I have a question about what I can do to create/start my portfolio as a data analyst/data designer. Currently, I'm a front-end developer + data analyst and I'm struggling to think/find a project to do.
I'm here to ask you where you find inspiration/ideas/data to build visualizations analyst/data designer.
Thank you and have a nice one!

The most typical British business is confirmed to be a “property management services company”.

That is a very fair point, because they are so big they also caused the most problems with the color scheme. If I use this dataset again I will remove!

I think you'd be better off removing limited and ltd from the data since most of them will be limited companies. The actual name is the more interesting part.

All of them have English speakers. But even if they didn't, the article being in English isn't a clue as to the origin of the data. There are plenty of things on the internet written in English about countries that aren't the US.
