I personally think that names cut into the stock look Cheaper than a high gloss finish.How about some nice shaped bit of thin Silver inlaid into the side of the stock with your names on ?, I think it would look nicer.Made to look like a old style paper Scroll, or banner??
I've seen names carved into stocks, but I always thought the Silver back ground always adds some class, especially if the actual plate it made to a nice pleasing shape.
good luck with your choice
