I am going to start a new business, but was curious if there is a reason why I may want to give my entity an 'universal name' instead of 'business specific' name?

Ted's Computer Sales, LLC vs. TCS, LLC

I was thinking that a generic name maybe better just in case the business is not successful then could 'reuse' it.
