Limited... Not in Illinois. "Limited" is one of the magic words, like "Incorporated" or "Company" (or abbreviations thereof) which must be in the name of a corporation to imply that it is a corporation. I imagine that you mustn't use it if you are not a corporation. Of course, your state may be totally different. This stuff is usually regulated at the state level. Dick
