hands down cool ass name
omgwtf
"We Saw Zion Graciously Rest On The Horizon".

As ever, the name would only fit a pretentious post-rock band.
electricvogue
I'm sticking with "Primate" even changed my myspace profile for it. I've recorded a bunch of songs on 4-track, now if I can get 'em on my computer i'll put them up..anyway, check out my page, without songs: http://www.myspace.com/primatee

Lesbian Wednesdays (For the Arctic Monkeys fans lol)


My two bands are called The Blocked Drains and Mr Trash and The Angry Kids but I don't really like either of those names.
futuredust
I'm in a band that have had alot of different names..
1. Entschuldigung (wich we changed cause people thought we were from Germany)
2. Åukæij (we changed that cause people couldn't spell it and to concerts we were called Okay and Orkan dry.gif )
3. Elegantik (thats our name now, but were thinking of changin it to 'En, to, tre du skylder mig en is' wich meens: 'one, two, three, you owe me an icecream' it sounds alot better in danish i guess)

Tuut_harold
I haven't thought about it yet but if I would start a band it would have a dry-as-hell-name.
Such as
we play you listen
Indie-hating hypocrits
or simply
'Bob'

Thought of a singer-songwriter artist name years ago, but y'all know already. It's Tuut Harold. pinch.gif

you DO know that your initial fanbase that's never heard of you are gonna be all guys, and they're gonna expect to see some tits wink.gif
dani_california
i thought of 'the shock absorbers' whilst driving past a car dealership today.
i wonder if it is already a name. huh.gif

and hrmmm i thought i would put this in:
did you know 'Gomez' got their name because they had a friend called Gomez who always got lost, so they put a sign out the front of where they were playing that said 'Gomez, the gig is here' and people thought that's what they were called. I think that's kind kewl laugh.gif
PumpkinPieces
I called my band "The Toadstools." I thought it was pretty rad.

The Dizeese

But that's a joke and only funny if you're stupid.

(La)
Ah, I've not really thought of this myself. But, I'm a big Whitlams fan and one of my Whitlams friends said, if they had a band they'd call it The Freedmans. You know, coz the Whitlams (Tim's decision) named themselves the Whitlams after Gough Whitlam... So, t'would be amusing.

A suggestion from someone else has been, not the whole band name but the name should start with "with". Because on posers and things after the billing of the main act they write "with" before putting the support acts. So, in the end the poster would say like "with with the Whitlams" and it would look silly.


Some of the band names people have mentioned are already taken. I know there's a pretty big band called the Sins.
Ms_Sunchild

MisplacedKeys
Fife.
The only problem is that only one person in the world would get it.
So I would probably have to go with ... The Wilde Oscars. I always thought that could be a neat name for a band but chances are there already is a band with that name.
VisionValley
hmm maybe "Louise and the haters" or something.... tongue.gif
and of course I'm Louise and I hate almost everything so I will be the only member in my band biggrin.gif

That is amazing.

Which in turns reminds me that in a drunken stupor I once sat down and contemplated changing my name to Oscar Orwell, which will probably have to serve as my nom de guerre. Since, clearly, I'd be a singer-songwriter and not a band.
