Names -> Cool Band Names -> A, Page 7

Whenever I hear a cool phrase somewhere, I like to exclaim "That would make a cool band name". This page is a list of such names.

I can not verify whether these names have been taken yet or not. If your band happens to already use one of these names sorry. If you want to use a name you see here, you'll need to verify it's not already in use.

Name		Origin		Submitted by:
Auraphace		My friends and I were playing around with some techie stuff while completely drunk, just to see how much damage we could do. One of them tried to say "Audiophase", but it came out "Auraphace" because of his intoxication. It also sounds cool because of the sexual innuendo reference to "orifice",		Argues with Treestump
Aureus		I just read this biology book for 2nd year... the term "staphylococcus aureus", a type of bacteria that causes skin ailments... I thought it sounds cool so...		Illusion
Australian Phonebook		Foreign stuff is cool (except their laws), so, what the heck? Sounded like a good name to me!		Junior
Authentification Failed		Saw it on a Virus blocker pop-up		Smillie
Auto-Tuned Vomit		I saw a video that was an Auto-Tuned remix of various kids involving children. One clip was "Balloon Boy" puking on live TV. After the remix, three people (two brothers and the wife of one of those brothers) were singing "Auto-Tune the Puke" four times.		JeReMy
AutoAsphyxiation		More hilarious than cool. If you don't know what it means, look it up.		Blurple
Autokara		It's short for "Automaattinen Karannut", which means "automatic runaway" in Finnish. I had always liked the sound of Automatic Runaway for a band name, so I translated it into Finnish and came up with Automaattinen Karannut. But then it hit me that nobody could spell it, much less say it...so I shortened it to Autokara.		Selo
Automata		It's a garage band name! Actually I read it in a Japanese comic book and it means Artificial Life....or somthin' like that. Anyway it sounds cool to me.		Shenlong
Automated Voice Service		Automated voice service. I came up with this name because so many bands use technology now a days to change their voices so I thought its like they're an automated voice service!		LEM(Live Every Moment)
Automatic Butt		One of Bart & Lisa Simpson's invention ideas (along with 'Fluorescent Booger')		boobarella
Automatic Death Disorder		I don't remember where I got this from...		G
Automatic Downfall		I was looking through the list of band names on this sight and it gave me ideas!! i think this sounds really cool and different in many ways!!!!!!!!!!!		Hayley Foord
Automatic Earth		With six billion sheeple who have forgotten how to reason or think for themselves, we've become the robots we fear. Thus every process on the planet has been automated. Instructed thru the media then monitored by satellites. This was once a fertal, promising world ...what a shame!		Gary Gray
The Automatic Granny Ninjas		When my grandmother slaped me and knocked me over....it kinda happened automaticly, so i just thought this up.		David *_*
Automatic Pause		This is cool because I was buying the new U2 cd. I just put in 'Automatic'. I was listening to my cd player, and I saw the "play/pause" button.		@drian
automatic weapons on the dance floor		well a friend and I were eating breakfast at a hotel sports bar it was totally empty except for us and on ths 12 inch tv was this really cheesy 80's movie where one minute they're in this back room that looks all scary and stuff then the next they're being shot at out on a dance floor and my mom walked in and said 'woah automatic weapons on the dance floor' and I thought it would make a cool band name although now that I think about it its alot like panic at the disco		Rosie-o
Automaton		Well, when my band was looking for a name, our guitarist came up with this name, but in the end we didn't use it. I reckon it sounds pretty cool and well, that's just it. It sounds cool.		No Hero
Autopsy Room 6		Just read it, I mean come on it just sounds awesome. It's a Stephen King short story, I just changed the 4 to a 6.		beat_like_a_dog
Autosave		A progress-saving setting in Guitar Hero III.(it means the game saves on its own) I like it because it works as a pun of the existing band Audioslave.		Jonathan S.
Autotelic		belief that a work of art is an end in itself or its own justification		DB
Autumn Almanac		I was listening to a song by the Kinks that had a very heavy Beatles influence on it. I automatically thought to myself, that it would be not only a cool name for a band, but perhaps also give the Kinks a renewed following. :) Hear that Ray?		Slr1971
Autumn Frost		Black/doom metal from Finland in the vein of Opeth, My Dying Bride and Moonspell. Up in Finland it can get really cold up there and the name sounds like it should be a band with that type of sound.		okayokay
Autumn's Bloom		I don't really remember how I came up with this. My friend and I were thinking about cool band names. I thought Autumn's Bloom sounded really cool, because nothing blooms in autumn.		logan
Auxillary Clinton		Sounds like a political electronica band, "Main Clinton showing signs of pulmonary troubles, switching to Auxillary Clinton."		Nicholas
Auxillary Drain		Me and my friends found a sign by this pipe and it said Auxillary drain on it. so we took it. then, we looked again and thought to ourselves. We should make a band and call it that.		Bernie
Avalon		I came across this word in one of my grandfathers books. Avalon is the name of an island paradise in the western seas to which King Arthur went at his death. Another Arthurian Legend		steve
Avatar		Avatar is hindi for Messiah or god-man so it could be a good religious bans but to me it sounds pretty gothic		HiddenGenius
Avengalism		he religion of revenge. I just made it up when someone said "I beleive in revenge because peave takes too long"		Amanda
Aversion		If you like to come up with cover songs, this is the name for you.		cover5
Avion		I had a English assignment where I had to interview people. I wanted to interview an up and coming band.		jess
The Avon Ladies		Saluting the lovely women of Avon, Indiana....Uh, what did you think I named it after?		Indy
Aware Of Vacuity		i was re-reading my copy of "Monkey" (A Chinese Pilgrim's Progress) & thought it would make a cool band name. The name is a reference to the hero's (A living Stone Monkey ) Religious name. It was made into a .T.V Series by NHK in the late 70's & The english dubbed version was CULT Viewing in the U.K at the time. "The Nature of Monkey Was Irrepressable !)		Grimley Fieendish
Aweful Awful		Um, they don't yell "Author, Author" they yell ENCORE! ENCORE! (As in play it again) DUUUUUHHHHH!!! [Ed.'s note: Ah contrare, mon frere. This use this as an alternative to "Encore, encore" in the 40s and 50s. Don't you watch Warner Brothers cartoons (Bugs Bunny in particular.)?		Bob
Aweird		My dad remarked once that Sadie, one of our two dogs, is very aware. I misheard him and said to Sadie, "Yes, you're a weird dog." When he corrected me, I laughed and said that she's aware AND weird, and then he jokingly declared, "Aweird!"		Da Phoenix
The Awesome band & Alex		This was originally the name of our band because it's true! We are awesome! (apart from Alex) I thought of it when I was thinking for the name of our cycling team (fast kids & Courtney)		Optimus Lime
Awesome Blue		Blue is awesome!		Security code
Awesome Possum		I just say it sometimes. I refuse to use ordinary slang that everyone in the world copies from everyone else and then some.		waverly
The Awesomeness Of Plastic And Robots		It's in Guitar Hero Rocks The 80's.		G
Awful Awful		A play on the popular cheer "Author Author", which is exclaimed by an enthusiastic audience after plays or operas (I don't know why). People seeing this band might yell the name of this weird alternative group, while others who find the band excellent would be very confused.		hardrock
Awkward At First		I think it sounds cool. And being gay, it kind of suits me.		Sum Guy
Awkward Last Words		Yeah, it's the name of an Armor For Sleep song, but lots of great bands have songs for titles. This one sounds really cool anyways.		Tinsley Ward
AWOL		away without leave...it's just a kickass military thing		gatorboymike
AX-15		It's the transmission in my dad's truck. (It's made by Aisin-Warner, the 5-speed manual transmission on six-cylinder Jeep Cherokees and Wranglers. It's actually quite good.)		Joe Montmatre
AxChik		My friend and I were just brainstorming cool band names, and this came up. A month earlier my friend had chopped my finger off with an ax.		Typo-07
Axewound		Awsome heavy metal name. I was in a car crash and I got this huge gash down my thigh. It looked like I'd been done with an axe, and it just popped into my head! Awesome!		TiMoFy!
Axiom		It means that a law which is accepted by everyone.		Nikhil
Axis Of Evil		Allright, it's a little to heavy-metal for most bands out there, but it does have it's possibilities. Even though GWB (The C-I-C, not the bridge to NJ) stopped using the term, it still comes up on the news channels quite often. For those with a non-metal band you can tweek the axis theme as follows: Axis of Steeples (For Fundie Rock) or Axis of TVo (For Techno-bands) etc.		John Buck
Axle Tramps		This female punk band is really into cars, apparently.		RevengeFromMars YouTube
Az Iff		There was a band called Az Yet. This is my version.		crazydon
Azalea Nyx		It's kinda like the band Rascal Flatts. This is for an all girl band or just a girl who is solo. it is a mix of the Azalea Flower and the night goddess Nyx.		BunnyKiller
Azul Tequila		Ive always liked tequila, and as a friend and I were getting wasted one day, we ran out of tequila and my bassist drank Windex by accident. So there came the name of our band Azul means blue. Azul Tequila		Steve Dominguez
