If I posessed any musical talent whatsoever I would call my band
**The Flagellant Brothers ** or **Atomic Sex Kitten Review **
Or
**The Flagellant Brothers and the Atomic Sex Kitten Review! **
Move over Britney and N’Sync!
Another SDMB Band Name ™ that cracked me up was:
**Chocolate Starfish **
Dixie Wrecked
say it fast…
it’s the name of my friend’s band…pretty good, eh?
Youth in Asia
A Dave Barry band name that I liked was Nuances of Toast. Actually, it was Pinot Noir and the Nuances of Toast, but I like the abridged one better.
General Purpose God
Ichor
Xygyce (pronounced zijeece)
lobotomy sodomy
And
just realized…good band names and good screen names should be interchangeable.
That’s a Monty Python reference, right?
The lead singer for Toad the Wet Sprocket was once quoted as saying ‘Do you think we would have picked that name if we thought we were going to be successful?’
And a local garage band is my personal fav:
Butt Trumpet
Crystal Methodists
Birthday Urinal Cake
Half-life, or Dr. Tulp’s anatomy lessons (thanks Rembrandt… :))
The Weird Sisters
I’ve copyrighted this, so nobody steal it!

Cool Band Name, of course.

This weekend my aunt and I came up with Smeared Livers
I think the full name was Something or Other Pate and the Smeared Livers, but I’d had a few beers, and I can’t quite recall.
In law school, my Civ Pro Prof called the class’s attention to an endnote after a case that mentioned the company (and case), Blonder-Tongue.
His reason was not to note the importance of the case, but rather to point out that it he felt it would have made an excellent name for a band!
My personal favorite came from an episode of the X Files:
Chronic Morbid Tumescence
Tribal Drum Addicts (or, Tribal Dramatics)
Some fellow garage-banders and I came up with the name, but never actually played together. We even had dreamed up a title for our first album:‘Hot Tub Town Tonite’.
One of my friends was in a band called Brother Juju and the Crackdaddies. I always liked that.
I’ve thought that if I ever started a band, the name would be $10,000 Reward or Lost Dog, because the flyers and posters would really catch peoples’ eye. (anyone searching for a band name is free to use either of those.)
I always thought a great name for a metal band would be Nazgul.
Some friends and I came up with this test: insert your possible band name in the blank and scream the following sentence out loud… if it sounds good, you’ve got yourself a band name.
“Hello Cleveland! Give it up for ______!!”
Thanks for noticing, vibrotronica.
Here’s two from about ten years ago (fake, of course):
Wood for Aunt Fritzi
Hitler and the Casuals
