One person with two business names.

    I'm running my business as a sole trader with registered business name via CRO. Now, I wanted to change the name or to keep both names (old and new). Is this possible?

    I just filled new application with CRO, but I am not sure will it be successful, due to my old business registration. Is the cessation of old business necessary first or not?

    Actually, I clicked and paid option "reservation of company name". Now, I think it was mistake. I would prefer to keep my status as a sole trader instead a company, but can I have two sole trader accounts at same time on my name?
