Funny because a saw the very same thing and tried to incorporate elements of 1 and 3, however, found that the result was too much conjestion. I'd also realized the title layouts were different with regard to anatomy; design 1 sports a retangular body with slight rise while 3 is not only slightly risen, however, also, tilted. Because 1 is not as easily legible as 3 I didn't want conjestion ( from body 3) adding confusion to the company name.
