What do you have your degree in Giles?

Nope, a degree would mean nothing in an advert or business card (imo)

If you decide to change your name, you should give some consideration to a name which is used friendly to search engines. For example if you called your company Lancashire Groundworks, you will be found very easily by people customers searching specifically for groundwork contarctors in Lancashire. Something to think about

If I saw that on a card I would immediately think w*nker.

Used to work with a health and save guy who used to sign everything DR smith. People used to think he was a Dr, the only thing he had a PhD in was being a knob, his middle name began with R.
