Ah,ok. Cool. I thought the presidency changed in the elections? Im guessing that's another government position. No prob. Im still into Nines until the landscape changes just a bit more :-)

I am not sure Nine is a good idea because in Like a fashionista shop is called Nineland. It's pretty similar.

I believe that is because Like a Fashionista was created by someone who worked with Chris on the original Miss Bimbo. So, one could argue that Like a Fashionista stole the name from Miss Bimbo/Bimboland. 

That said, I think "mall" or "fashion district" or "shopping centre" or  "department store" or something clear would be better than Nine's or Laarson's.
I like the fashion district idea and then having specific names for the different shops

A little about the Nine name:
The first bimbo game to ever be was ma-bimbo (still available) and it was French. At the time (around 2007-2008), Miss Bimbo became the English version of the site. We had a lot of similarities, such as the shop's name, Nine's. 
At some point the two sites split and Missbimbo also changed the bimbo base, which we still have. You probably noticed a lot of old clothes on the shop, those are from the old ma-bimbo base. After the base change, some designers remade some clothes, but not all of them.
I don't know when, but Missbimbo disappeared after some time. Beemov, the ones who created ma-bimbo, also made multiple versions of it, such as Italian, Spanish and English, the last one being Likeafashionista (LAF). After LAF was available, Missbimbo came back as Bimbo.land in 2015.
So not only LAF is older than BL, but Ma-bimbo is older than Missbimbo, therefore, Nine does not actually belong to us.

Taking into consideration what Dye96 said regarding Nine, I think it's better if it continues to be called "shop". Or if changes are really necessary, I think "mall" or even "Laarsen's Mall" sounds good enough while still being straightforward. I played Like a Fashionista and do recall seeing more of a connection to Nine (who even appeared in the tutorial iirc, correct me if I'm wrong because I haven't played that game in eons), but in bimbo.land it doesn't make as much sense to me. Like, there isn't as strong a connection if that makes sense.

i think i agree with traggot that mall sounds good. Nine and Laarson sound more like...specific shops whereas our shop is a bunch of different designers with different styles so mall would make more sense if you know what i mean

Wasn’t there some legal trouble because Miss bimbo was originally the English version of LAF but soemthing happened and then they split, LAF tried to get the miss bimbo name back but was legally unable to and that’s how they ended up with LAF?

In all honesty I have no idea. I googled it a little but I can't find this info, and I also don't remember it from when it happened. But all being said and done, Nine should belong to ma-bimbo/LAF.
