I have a few checking accounts - one for this business, one for that. Whenever I go to my bank, I need to remember my account number for a transaction. Why not allow me to assign names for these accounts e.g. RENTAL, BUSINESS1, BUSINESS2, ABC etc. My checkbooks will carry these names as well. When I go to bank, I tell my bank ID (Social may be?) and the account Name for the transaction and that is it. The deposit and withdrawl slips will have a new box to put my account name in it.

Call a few different banks and ask if they offer this feature. The bank I do business with has allowed me to name my accounts for years. They still have numbers attached to them but I don't need to remember them to access my accounts.

My bank does not allow that. Is there a list of banks that do allow it?
