Grammar
Better idea?
First of all, sorry to all the English teachers who have already answered to my questions.
I'm writing to ask my previous questions because I didn't really get the answers.
Q1: Now I know " the name of the story" is grammatically correct, but what about " story name"? Does it sound weird to an native English speaker? I know to write "hotel rooms" is better than "the rooms of the hotel". So "story name" or " story's name" just sound weird?
Q2: I want to give my story a name. "Little Cat Printing House", I want "Little Cat" to be the printing company's name. Is there anything wrong with the title? Well, someone suggested me to use " Little Cat" Printing House. I would like to know more ideas, please! Because my report has to be handed in before tomorrow night!

Thank you for your help! Is there any different between American English and Canadian English?
Because you said " story name" is not used. How come another Tr. posted that "story name" is fine?
I'm confused.....Help.....

Hi,
You said that you are in a hurry to finsih your work.
Because of that, there seems little point in getting into a detailed discussion.
The best thing is to show us the actual sentence that you want to use this phrase in.

The sentence is, The name of the story/ The story name/ The story's name is " Little Cat" Printing House.
That's it.......which one you think is the best ? Or is there any mistakes you would correct? Thank you once again!

Alphecca, Clive,
Sorry. I can't agree that "story's name" (or any equivalent expression) sounds idiomatic.
The novel's name is "David Copperfield". ???
The magazine's name is "Newsweek". ???
The poem's name is "Patterns". ???
These don't set off any 'discomfort' bells for you?
(I find them atrocious!
