Help picking font for logo
Hello Experts,
I'm attaching two .pdf files that include my logo with different fonts for the name of my business below the logo. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out which font represents what I'm looking for in my logo. What I'm looking to achieve for my logo is below:
- Professional and Clean looking font
My logo is complete but just having trouble picking the font that represents Professional and Clean look for the font.
Attached are two .pdf files that I created in Illustrator. I would like to see if someone could tell me which font looks best for a Professional and Clean look.

I uploaded the files as .pdf (Adobe PDF) not Photoshop. Sorry if I added the wrong files extension.
My mistake - PDF -> PSD (dyslexic drunk!)

LOL, no worries. So, I'm planning on going to print 1000 business cards and just wanted to make sure of font before I go to print. Which one do you think looks the best for professional and clean, and why?
I prefer #2 because it is capitalized but prefer the thickness of the #1 font
You have a logo with a thick grey border and I think your font should replicate that, maybe not to the same thickness but in part at least
Maybe something like this

(obviously capitalize the everything with a smaller font size)

I added bold to the font in #2. Notice that it does not seem professional looking now. The letters don't seem to be aligned correctly.

What do you mean don't seem to be aligned correctly
Of the three I think that looks the best.

I like one better..when I scaled it to my landscape view on my 15.4 inch laptop...it is close tho...when i snap them to view side by side I acutual like two a little better because it was a faster read and did not overwhelm the logo...but In normal mode of viewing 1 looked better

@10023,
Thank you for the feedback. The .pdf versions you truly do have to scale it up to get a good idea as to how it looks. When you first open the .pdf files up the logo/font look really small (at least on my computer).
@10023 / Gary,
Are there any other fonts that are categorized as being "Professional and Clean" looking that maybe I could try as well? I'm not to typeography so I'm not sure what or how to pick a font based on the desired outcome, which in my case I'm looking for a "Professional / Clean" looking font.

Gary,
I am not an expert on fonts. But what I think you are doing is very important to get the most out of your presentation.
My bias--->which combination of font-->logo gets the message to the reader the fastest
My impression is i read the font first, and glance at the logo for a visual relationship. That's it!! Nothing more.

My wife is quite the opposite. She will go to great lengths to meet overall design objectives without concern for
what I call "ease of use", "user friendly" or maybe "easy on the eyes". When I see her around 5 pacific time I will ask here which one she likes. We butt heads on this everytime.

ok good luck with and thanks for the question

Personally I prefer the font in #2
But like the look of #1 more
I would make the font thicker so it ties in more with the logo
