Help with name

I am in the process of putting together a business plan for a brick and mortar restaurant serving chili dogs, slider, quesodillas and hard serve ice cream. The name I came up with was Chilidoggs Grill. My wife doesn't like it and wants me to stick with T-Dawgs which I had previously planned on, I think it sounds to hometown dinery to me. I plan on mini franchising these and want to come up with something catchy and not corny. Any ideas?

Why name it anything limiting it to hog dogs when you'll also be selling other stuff?

A mini franchise is one that is not that big, maybe 2 or 3 locations, and all are usually owned by one person.

Where are you going to place the major emphasis in your mix of products? What's going to be your "Signature" item that sets you apart from all the others? That's where you should place the emphasis in your name. If it's the Dogs----"Georgia Dogs & Cones" If it's the Cones---- "Georgia Cones & Such" Sounds like you're trying to be all things to all people- Dogs, Cones, Mexican, etc. Hard to build an Identity around a diverse product mix.

The focus is still going to be on my homeade chili dogs. I am probably going to need an investor or partner,therefore I need to make it more interesting. Knowing that the chilidogs will not bring in the business needed for the buildout I want, the qesos and sliders will be a welcome addition to the menu. The ice cream, being from a small southern town, will be a big draw after football games on friday and a good hangout on saturday night. I think a few small things done right will not water down my menu.
