Well I need one for real now. I play the fiddle with a group of musicians. We’ve been playing together informally for some time now and have recently done a few non-paying gigs. However we’ve now gotten a proper paying gig, so we’ve decided that we really need to come up with a name for ourselves. We haven’t gotten very far with that so I thought I’d call on the collective wit and wisdom of the Dope and see if you could help me out.
I’ll give some background to help get you going - instruments include 2 fiddles, a banjo, tin whistle, guitar, mandolin, moothie (harmonica) and bodhran (drum). We play traditional Scottish music but like to throw in some non-traditional stuff as well. We’re not professional musicians by any means and we all make our livings in other ways. We’re located in northeast Scotland (Aberdeen) but only one of us is local. The rest are from England (one north, one south), Glasgow, Shetland and Texas (that’s me). Three men, three women, not young, not old.
So fire away, and I eagerly await your suggestions!
Thanks

Can you give us examples of the names of some similar groups? I’m guessing something like “Kill Our Parrots” would not be the kind of thing you are looking for.
Only if it’s Scottish rock.
