[edit] What's in a name?
From Wikipedia:Naming conventions (companies)

- If the legal status is used to disambiguate, it should be abbreviated in the article title (Corp., Inc., LLC, LLP, Ltd., plc, etc.), unless company literature and logos clearly shows a preference for the unabbreviated title (CBS Corporation). Likewise there should be no comma prior to the legal status unless specified by the company literature.
A quick visit to the Saks Incorporated website shows that the preference visibly favors an unabbreviated form of the company name. Note, however, that the name "Saks Incorporated" does contrast with the previous name of the company prior to the Saks Fifth Avenue acquisition — Proffitts, Inc. — ArkansasTraveler 14:50, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
