Names -> Cool Band Names -> B, Page 1
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.

| Babes of Wrath | Like "Grapes of Wrath" but with more babes. Could be good for an all-female metal band. | RevengeFromMars YouTube | ||

| Back Alley Redemption | Just think it sounds dark amd gritty... Plus the initials spell BAR. | Freer | ||
| Back To Work | I thought it would be such a cool band name because in one of my teacher's we would always get of topic. Every 5 minutes she would say, "Okay class, Back To Work!" How Awesome!!! | I Got A Great Band | ||
| Backaryd Babies | Ther is a swedish band called "backyard babies", but move the Y and youll get the name of a small swedish town; "backaryd". funny? naah. only if you live in sweden =) | albinogul | ||
| Backdoor Cowboys | Sure it has a Brokeback Mountain connotation, but it's still keeping in the spirit of weird band names. | Jace | ||
| Backdoor Romeo | A runner up to Anal Zoro | Captain Zaxxon | ||

| Backpack Thieves | This sounds cool | The Mole | ||
| Backseats of the Bus | It's sort of a misfit name. I also was on a bus ride to school once where all the kids in the back rows stood up and started singing. It was fun! | WhyBother | ||
| Backsliders | A backslider strays from the straight-and-narrow to the dark side. A lot of "Christian rock" bands tend to do this. | Adam Roach | ||

| Bad Revenge Against a Racist Boy | I came up with it today. | Aee | ||
| Bad Taste | We think its a realy mad name for a band. I heard it on the radio when the anouncer was complaining about some actors bad taste in clothes, and I thought it was awsome, so does the band. | matt | ||
| Bad Year | This was inspired by one of the little messages on the cover of Green Day's "Dookie". Oh and for the person who thought Green Day was a stupid band (which it is in punk) because they didn't know what a green day looked like. Well the name Green Day is about the lead vocalist getting high. | CED | ||
| Bad Young Girls' Gross Play | I was with a group of friends while we were hearing a radio talk show interviewing a politician. The politician was talking of a need to defeat the "good old boys network". One of my friends said "But with what shall we replace it? The bad young girls' gross play?" | Flora Rolf | ||
| BADEAR | Not good for a lead singer who is tone deaf. But what a great band name. sounds like bad hearing. Goes with Badfinger | Willy | ||
| Badland Bandits | I was drawing a cartoon band. I had big gaps on outfits where a band's sign would normally go. So I created a band name and created the sign also. | Louis Lockwood | ||
| Badly Drawn Genitalia | I was going to paint my room, so I said to my mom, "I want to paint my walls white and have some friends over to paint things on the walls in different colors........" then I stopped, thought, and said, "No, nevermind, I'll wind up with badly drawn genitalia on my ceiling.....hey, that would be a cool band name!!!!!" My mother sighed. | ObiWannaDubi | ||
| Badly Dressed Dogs | A suggestion for the name of my band... This one didn't win. I imagine a dog dressed in one of those dumb costumes some people put on their pets. Poor things. | Heather | ||
| Bag o Rats | Imagine what concentrated mosh-pit chaos is in an ACTUAL Bag o Rats? | bramph@aol.com | ||
| Bag of Animals | My wife was telling our daughter to clean her room and she packed up a garbage bag with her stuffed animals in it. When she brought it out into the living room and I asked what it was She said a bag of animals. I thought hmmm. | Templar | ||
| Bagging Some Zees With The Green Mountain Boys | A friend of mine says that each US state brings a certain image to her mind. For some reason Vermont brings to her mind a sleeping bag. | Regina Haniger | ||
| Baggy Pants | Well, me and my friend were at his house on the trampoline. My pants were too big so they fell down. We called myself Baggy Pants, and we just called our band that. I just like the name. Dunno why. | Brennan | ||
| Baglady Romeos | My friend Walter had this thing for really old ladies. Oedipus complex for sure. He liked them so old we figured by the time he was 40 we would know he was looking to score one of his sweeties if we saw him headed to the graveyard with a shovel and a six-pack. | badboybear | ||
| Bahamut | It's the name of a kick-a** dragon from the "Final Fantasy" games, and also the name of some weird whale thing from Japanese kids stories, kinda like Leviathan. :p | k.m | ||
| The Bait Ovens | from Beethoven(pronounced baytoven) | Winter Pepper | ||
| Bajs | it's cool because no one wants to be called it | Moz | ||
| Bake Sale Hotties | Going to a friends elementary school bake sale. Thought of all these gorgeous teachers in a female rock band. Delicious! | Phil | ||
| Baked Goods and Roasted Bads | This is one group. The title is a combo of pastry and evil children that want to scarf them down. | J | ||
| Baked Not Fried | It was on a box of cheddar shapes. | melissa | ||
| Baked Potato | It's interesting because baked potatoes are delicious, and "baked" can have another meaning. | Lefty Lucy | ||
| Bakesale Tragedy | I drempt one night that I was drafted into this band by a friend--only to find out that it was a screaming metal band. | Kevin | ||
| Baking Brad | Similar to "Breaking Bad" but apparently involves a different drug. And someone named Brad. | RevengeFromMars YouTube | ||
| The Balancines | It means 'The Rockers' in spanish. I thought it would be cool to have a name in another language...very mysterious, don't ya think? On the other hand, people might think you are a spanish band... | CL | ||
| Baldman | It's kind of a spoof off of Afroman. At my school one of the science teachers, who is bald gets high off of whiteboard markers during class, and we're all like, "if only because i got high was by baldman, it could be his theme song" | Superblonde | ||
| Baldwin Hall | It's named after a part of my school. I think it has sort of a cool name for a band. It's a little random but I'd listen to the band. | Sarah Batbold | ||
| Ballerino | You know the scene in 'Mystery Men' where they are interviewing superheros? You remember 'Ballerina Man'? I was talking with my friend Eve about it and we decided that since he was a guy he really should'nt be called a ballerina, but rather 'Ballerino'. After thinking about that incident I am now convinced it sounds like a name of a Italian techno-rock type band. | Gir Beeblebrox | ||
| Ballistic Sirloin | I was watching "Myth Busters" and they were dispelling the myth of the Ballistic Ice bullet. One of their experiments was a bullet made of hamburger. I was thinking about this and said "Meat Bullet" as a penile pseudonym. Then me and another guy started making plays on that and the funniest one was this. I said, that would make a cool band name. | Zymurgy | ||
| Balloon Baboon | My favourite word is balloon and the first thing that came into my head was baboon because it rhymed with balloon. It is cool because it has got two random words put together! | Camilla | ||
| The Balloonatics | It's a combination-mash up of the words balloon, loon, and lunatic. I don't know what kind of music they'd play but I just made it up and I really like it. It's kind of clever but ridiculous sounding. | Edward | ||
| The Balms | I was just thinking of something out of the ordinary and came up with this. (could also be "Lip Bomb") | Mr. B. | ||
| Balthasar | One of the people in the Bible but would be a good name for a black metal band. | Grim Reaper | ||
| BAMF! | A crazy name that exactly describes those in the band. It also sounds cool. BAMF! | Freddy | ||
| The Banana Hammocks | The band would wear letter sweaters and sports gear- you know, like 'jocks'... get it?! Cracking myself up here... | sk8rdad | ||
| Bananabuzzkill | It's cool cause my friend was thinking of band names and he's like banana, kill, buzz--bananabuzzkill! [Ed.'s note: This was actually a stunt on the MTV Jacka** predecessor "Buzzkill", where the three cads in the van hold fake auditions where young people are asked to dress as bananas.] | linelock | ||
| Bananakin Skywalker | Talking about Star Wars Characters if they were food instead of people. Stemmed from Pizza the Hut from Spaceballs. | Whip D Whip | ||
| Band | Best known for "Song" (Ed:Hopefully, they won't get mistaken for The Band. A lot of requests for "The Weight" then.) | Chazm | ||
| Band Band Band! | It's so underrated that it's profoundly perfect. And just cool. | Patty Joplin-Paige | ||
| Band Camp | Ever watch American Pie "And there was this one time, at band camp.." | kgirl | ||
| The Band Formerly Known As The Last Name We Used | My friend's dad has a band and they are constantly changing their name. So whenever someone asks, she just says they don't have one, 'cause they're always changing it. So, one time, I said they ought to put an end to it and just call themselves "The Band Formerly Known as the Last Name We used." She liked it. I haven't pitched it to her dad yet, though. | 300 Bernard St. Girl | ||
| The Band Geeks | Come on, I mean who doesn't want to be a band geek?! You know the saying "Geeks get all the girls." WELL???? | josh | ||
| Band In Front | You know that opening band that no one can remember the name of? Well one day i was at a voodoo glowskulls show and i couldn't remember the opening band's name so i called them band in front. | Danny | ||
| Band Name | The ultimate in the "stating the obvious" category. | D-Pac | ||
| Band of Mormon Boys | My brother and his friends came up with it because they wanted a band name that described them and it can be shortened to BOMB. | Jesscia | ||
| The Band Otherwise Known As... | I thought it sounded really funny and would be good for a parody band. | G | ||
| Band Over | You know there are sublime messages in some names such as | Rudy | ||
| The Band That Doesn't Wanna Play | Go up on stage when it's time for you guys to play, have your intro like this: "We are The Band That Doesn't Wanna Play"... | Wilhelm Fink | ||
| The Band Who Shot Liberty Valence | [Ed.'s note: A play on the movie "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" and also the Gene Pitney/James Taylor song. Sorry Bob, but your description didn't make any sense.] | bob | ||
| Band Who So Vauntingly Swore | It's a line in the little-known third verse of "The Star-spangled Banner" (Third verse when a total of four are included). A (musical) band by that name would shift the meaning of "band" to musical group. | Regina Haniger | ||
| Band With No Talent | Truth in advertising. Got it from Green Jelly's song "Three Little Pigs" where the singer says, "And the moral...is that a band with no talent can easily amuse idiots with a stupid puppet show". "Stupid Puppet Show" can also be a band name. | Indy | ||
| The Band With The Hot Singer | Why do you think girls go to see bands? Because of the music? | Billy Kongo | ||
| Banda Nachos | its cool cuz nachos rool!! I was watchin the mexican music channel, and one band was banda machos. banda nachos was the 1st thing i thought of. | Mandie B. | ||
| Banded Slate | This is a cool name because Native Americans used this stone for ceremonial reasons. I came up with it from a statue I carved out of banded slate. | jeff van auken | ||
| Bandersnatch | It's from the poem Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll (Alice in Wonderland), the line goes: "Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun The frumious Bandersnatch!" Think it is an exellent band name; has the word "band" in it (obviously) and "snatch" which is catchy. | Marie |
