Original Band Name

BMSC

I have just started in a new band but we're havin truoble pickin a name. we're a standard 5-piece rock band with a style ranging from kings of leon to smashing pumpkins. any suggestions? no metal names

lu22*

the random randomers?

no

thought not

funktastic

Might be more original to think of it yerselves

BMSC

ya it would be more original to think of it ourselves but that hasnt worked so far. so if i dont get any proper suggestions soon look out for the random randomers around dublin in the next few months.

"Sucker-Punch to the Ovaries!"

Shryke

The Bastards. Seriously, think about it!

Edit: Seriously now.

J.S. Pill

How about "[your name] and the rag-time higglers jug band"

HonalD

What about - "We didn't ask to be famous" or "Take it or leave it" or "For one night only" (hopefully!!!!:D ). "One sandwich short of a picnic" ? "Tit for Tat" (Now that could be fun!!!!)

or how about "Absolute Tripe"

HonalD

"Going no-where"; "Lotta balls"; "You don't get famous with a face like mine"; "Mine's a pint"; "If you don't like the music then get the **** out of here"....Are we getting anyway close?

Bring Me Some Chronic.

Don't forget to search google and last.fm after you've chosen.

Just tell everyone to keep it at the back of their minds as they're going about their everyday life. Odds are that one person will suddenly come up with something. There's no rush on it if you've just started the band. All the time you sit around thinking of a name you could be writing songs sure

BMSC

the problem is we spend all our time writting song so noone has bothered with a name yet but were gona start gigin soon so we need one. keep the suggestions comin. i like bring me some chronic. not as a band name id just like some chronic

Just tried that out, using words from a pop-up ad "Sink the putt"...

Which generated the anagram "The spunk tit."

you can't go wrong with an obscure Simpsons reference:

-Our insect overlords (surely someone is already using this)
-Coco Beanie Himself
-Brockway Ogdenville and the North Haverbrooks
-The Sun-blocking Machines

BMSC

good work. i think you might be on to something there

Just do what 34.58% of all bands do and name it after an obsucre track by a band that influenced you

I disagree there is a band called "Purple is a fruit?" worst band name ever
