Name of Your Own Jewelry Business
Choose something relevant and something which you can expand on. If you choose something like "The Ring Store" this might be limiting where as "The Jewelry Store" gives more options.
Register your business name and buy a domain name for your web site. You might be planing a website in the future and would not want this name to have been registered be some one else.
Open a checking account using your business name, looks more professional when using your checks if your business name is printed on them.

Well, if I was considering starting another business, it might be the jewelry business -- but I'd like to sell pearls and be able to buy Tahitian and South Seas pearls.
