Struggling with EIN Application Because of Long LLC Name

Question

I'm filling out an online application for my newly created LLC and I can't get past one of the final pages. My business name is 42 characters long and there's a field reading

"Legal name of Single Member Limited Liability Company (LLC) (must match articles of organization, if filed)*

  • The legal name may not contain any of the following endings: 'Corp', 'Inc', 'PA'.
  • The only special characters allowed are '-' and '&'"

The word before LLC is particularly long and keeps getting split between the original line and a "continuation line," but then I get a message that words can't be split between lines. However, it won't let me simply move the whole of the longer word to the continuation line. It seems to be giving me no options if it wants me to write the actual full name.

Any guidance would be very, very appreciated. I don't want for this to create headaches down the road. Thanks!
