Names -> Cool Band Names -> B, Page 2
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.
Entries starting with B are split into multiple pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Name | Origin | Submitted by: | ||
| Bashaka Meniakus | This was my bands original name. It would work well as a Trip Rock band name. It didn't work to well for our Punk/Hardcore band. | SavageEntity | ||
| basically nothing | im starting a band an a guy ask me what was it called and i didnt have a name so i said, 'basically nothing"...i was think about it but then i decided not to use it | that guy | ||
| The Basket Cases | I was sittin' around listenin' to "Basket Case" by Green Day one day and I thought, "'The Basket Cases' would be a cool name for a Green Day tribute band" | Joey Ramone | ||

| The Bathroom Five | Do I have to explain myself? | burntbyhope | ||
| The Bathroom Passes | It's kinda sick, okay, but in middle school they were THE thing to have. | Sarah | ||
| Batteries Not Included | If you're of the un-electronica kind and strictly steered toward real instruments, this would be, in my opinion, the best one-word explaination of a band trying to get that point across. OR maybe irony is the theme. | Odette | ||
| Battery Not Included | It's cool because it has two meanings. It can mean a battery you use to run toys, flashlights etc., or a band that refuses to get in fights or beat up people, thus the battery is not included. | rocky | ||
| Battery Operated Boyfriend (Bob) | If Steely Dan can get away with it way back in the seventies, surely this is legit today!? I heard it at a bar in Jersey and knew it would spread like wildfire. I know I like my Bob. | Mardel Rankodel | ||
| The Battlefield | Its the name of my Hp fan fiction on Snitchseeker.com and its one of those names that really stick in your head I guess. I think itd be cool for a Punk (or not punk) Rock band or such! | ROSSE | ||
| Battteries Gone Dead | i was watching this wierd movie on tv called batteries not included and im in a band myself... but the other members in my band didnt like the name so i guess someone else can have it.. | smoocher | ||
| BAUKEM! | The sound a person makes when they are knocked upside the head senseless. My friend makes this noise when massacring in video games. This is how you know he has won. | noodleboy | ||
| Bayonet Misfire | Describes humanity perfectly. They get something good and confuse its purpose, and then they screw it up completely. | chris | ||
| BB McGee | well ppl i kno have big boobs so we call them BIG BOOBED Mcgees | Caprodeites-long story | ||
| BBY (Best Band Yet) | It's cool because it's short and tells a lot. [Ed's note: And hopefully, for their sake, it's true.] | Alicia Parnel | ||
| Bean Bush | i came up with this name as i was remembering the time when i was at a sleepover, and we were playing telephone, and the phrase was paint brush, but by the time it got to me it was bean bush, u kinda had to be there, but it was really funny | Kacey | ||
| Bean-stain Pink Mikey | I was doin this mad lib with a friend of mine in grade school and we did this stupid one and it asked for a color and we came up with Bean-stain pink; and mikey was our protagonist's name... | Mark Borison | ||
| Bear Victim #4 | This came from a radio ad for Leiney's beer where one of the two brothers who own the company is casting a movie to show how they went from their humble beginnings in the woods to where they are today. The other brother asks if he has a part in the movie. "Sure, here you go." "Bear Victim #4?" | Disco 3:16 | ||
| Bearded Bunnies | Can you imagine what bearded bunnies would look like? Weeeeiiiirrrrdd | Mouse | ||
| Beautiful Disaster | Also a name of a 311 song. | blc | ||
| Beautiful Disaster | Obviously from the title of a Kelly Clarkson song. I thougt what a great band name! It's an oxymoron, i like those kind of things. It conjures up something that could be really wonderful but will probably end in a spectacular and sad way. And at the same time is a real big mess. Kind of like the story of Romeo and Juliet. | Ed | ||
| Beautiful In Pink Fetus | Umm ya its just gnarley. My friend can up with it for our band so TAKEN lol. He likes the word fetus and he's got pink hair. | Dani | ||
| Beautiful Jail | In the Jimmy Eat World video for the song "Work" Various kids are interviewed about what they think about high school, and one girl says "high school is like a beautiful jail" I thought that was pretty cool. | Hawk | ||
| Beautiful Nightmares | It's kind of like our lives. They can be beautiful, but they can be nightmares. My friends and I started this band and we liked the name. My friend Jenna is the one who came up with it. We loved the name so we decided to use it. | Amy | ||
| The Beautiful Peepholes | Or inspiration Marilyn Manson gets when he looks through keyholes to see the nasty girls doing nasty things. I thought you would like it. :D | D. Mented | ||
| Beautifully Disasterous | Awesome song name by a local Winnipeg punk band, and the name and the song blows me away. | kayey | ||
| The Beauty of Smashing | We came up with this in my guitar class. My teacher said we could smash some cheapo Stellas, and i said, "Ah, the beauty of smashing." And so our band was just that. | I AM IRON MAN | ||
| Beaver Barrier | This was one of the clues in a crossword puzzle. I think its supposed to mean a beaver dam, but it just sounds so much cooler, like a beaver breaking the sound barrier. Think about it! Sonic Boom Beaver! (hey, thats not a bad name either) | evilweevil | ||
| Beavers At Nine | I was watching TV one day, and a commercial came up advertising a nature program about Beavers at nine o' clock. It's cool because it's oddly funny. Go ahead... just try saying it with a straight face! | Chris | ||
| Bebop | i just thought of it from cowboy bebop! i love that show! tee hee hee! | shorty | ||
| bedknobs & broomsticks | that's a movie but i got the soundflow from angels & airwaves... | jared28136 | ||

| Beef Curtains | When I was in England in the 80's (touring with a band), I learned a lot of Brit slang. This is a female anatomical reference... | Mongoose Eyeball | ||
| Beefaroni Shoestore | Uh...it's kind of a long story. Let's just say I combined 2 jokes from Comedy Central Presents and Just Shoot Me. | wadded beef | ||
| The Beefcake Brothers | We thought that this name was totally gangster. It sounds 'original' with a bit of a meaty tang. Just think, the first song could be titled, "Greasy Spatula". Doesn't it ring a bell? We thought that it would be awesome: The Beefcake Brothers with their number 1 hit single, "Don't Go Squishing My Buns"!!! | Alley&Kara | ||
| The Beefcake Monkeys | my friend put that as a banner on cell phone one day and I thought it was funny | ton ton | ||
| Beeh Grade | Because it's not an "a" grade like perfect. It's slightly off beat, just like a rock band, (personality wise.. not musically). | Brittney | ||
| Beer Frisky | As far as I know, this is original to me. One night, I was a little drunk after drinking one of those supersize beers at an Atlanta Braves games and I leaned over to my then-girlfriend and slurred "I'm feeling a little beer frisky, honey." | Mel S. Hutson | ||
| Beethoven and the Electrons | hehehe i came up with this one for my friends because they always come up wiht the STUPIDEST band manes (aka the eclectics, the surgeons) and they also think they are the greatest thing to happen to music since beethoven whihc they are actually as far from as they can get. poor guys | OH yeah | ||
| The Beethoven Remix | Actually going through this site there was one name with Beethoven in it, and so I toyed with the idea. I figured Beethoven needed a little makeover so there you go. | *~*Amsy*~* | ||
| Before Draco | I kept on attempting to spell Before Dark and it kept on coming out Before Drak. I immediately thought of Draco Malfoy from Harry Potter. | Douglas Bucksworth aka D.B. | ||
| Behind Closed Doors | This is actually my band, so please don't take the name. I thought of it when I was watching the news. The anchor was talking about hidden information. | Cheech | ||
| Behind the Label | One of my friends told me to check for something under a label, when she said it I realized it sounded like a great band name. | Lynne | ||
| Behold The Irony | Mike Oxlong | |||
| The Behoovers | I lot of folks use the term "behooves" (as in "It behooves me to...). The most famous usage has to be "Muffy" (Jami Gertz) on the 80s show "Square Pegs". I also know a co-worker that it behooves him to use that verb over and over again. | Jonathan | ||
| The Bell Rang | I think it was cool because when I would practice with my band at school in the music room. Everyone that would be listening to us would say, "The bell rang". That's when we knew it was time to stop. | magic man | ||
| Belle Gunness | Name of a woman from Indiana in the late 19th to early 20th century who poisoned as many as 26 men. Disappeared circa 1906 and was never seen again, living or dead. | Donny | ||
| BeLoW ZeRo | One time during the spring, it snowed and the temperature was below zero. It was a really cold day in the middle of spring, below zero. You don't get that everyday. Since it was such an odd coincidence, I thought it would be a cool band name. | Mop Top | ||
| Belt Out Loud | I like it because it's a combination of get Belted and Laugh out loud. | Tammy Brady | ||
| Ben and the Wa Balls | My friends and I always say "That was the name of my band in high school" when someone says something unintentionally funny. My friend Ben mentioned he needed help coming up with a name for his new band, so before I could think straight I said "How about Ben and the Wa Balls?" What was so great about it is the other girl who was with us kept badgering us, saying "WAIT! Why is that funny? What the hell are Wa Balls?" [Ed.'s note: Ben Wa balls are Chinese metal balls used for sexual stimulation.] | Amy | ||
| The Ben Conspiracy | One day I was sitting in a coffee shop with my boyfriend (whose name is Ben) when a friend of mine walked in (also named Ben!). That night I sat at home and realized that I know tons of guys named Ben. The next day, I exclaimed to someone, "It's a conspiracy of Ben's!!" | Kaaarleh | ||
| Ben Therre and the Don Thatts | i was bored and talkin to my friends trying to figure out what to do and every idea was followed by a been there, done that, and we ended up makin up a band, adn one of my friends name was ben...it was just kinda funny | Stephanie | ||
| The Bench-Warmer Heros | theres this sucky kid on the football team at school and i said it would be funny if he became a bench warmer hero and then i thought it was a good name | Hellian | ||
| The Benchwarmers | Cause me and my friends are usually substitutes for games. | Shafiq | ||
| Bend Over ChuckBerry | A play on "Roll Over Beethoven". SNL was doing a Village People parody back in the John Belushi days, and this is the song they sang. | fun | ||

| Benevolent Fascist | An inside joke between me and one of my friends. ONE fascist can still potentially be 'nice'. It's MANY that becomes a problem... | crapnel | ||
| Benifer A Flake | A whiney vocaled house band, like that flakey whining actor that makes crappy movies and dates nothing but women named Jenifer. But loves himself too much to share it by marrying at least one of them but likes to play house with them and tries to knock em' up, even though he's gay. | badboybear | ||
| Bent Brother | It's just cool! The name "Bent Brother" just sounds cool! It's just really an opposite of Twisted Sister. | Anonymous Bob | ||
| Bent Like Bob | There was someone me and a friend knew in high school who neither of us could stand, due to him being such a large tw*t. One day, as a way of jokingly insulting someone, i told them they we're 'bent like bob', and immediately thought of how cool a name it would make for a band. It's a sort of adaptation of less than jake i suppose. | craig carey | ||

| Bent Wookie | From the "Simpsons" episode where Ralph bent his "Wookie". | Big Mac | ||

| Bermuda Mohawk | There's an exit sign on a nearby expressway that simply states "Bermuda Mohawk". Of course it refers to the streets at the exit, but it sticks in your head like a hatchet every time you see it. | Kristen | ||
| Best Choice Condoms | think about it...they have best choice versions of almost everything else at your store...why not condoms? | Pyro | ||
| The Best Next Thing | Now you've heard of the "next best thing." Well now, how about the "best" next thing. For the next best thing, might not be the best. But this is stating that this is the best next thing. By using strategical word play, any person who gets word of this band will want to hear it. To see if it truly is, "The Best Next Thing." | Hoodaskank | ||
| Beta Carotine | Better than Vitamin C. :) | A. NonyMous | ||
| Better Left Unsaid | How is it cool? That's probably better left unsaid. | Greg Mawer | ||
| Better Name Next Time | I think all bands should put this. I mean, even kewl bands have names that make no sense! Their first hit single: Better Title Next Time. Album: Still No Name Yet. Perfect Match! | Kelly*Kewl | ||
| Better Off Naked | THis just sounds cool. Plus it sounds like a punk band and i would have never come around if Blink didnt write "Whats my age again" | Joe Jackson | ||
| Better Off Naked | THis just sounds cool. Plus it sounds like a punk band and i would have never come around if Blink didnt write "Whats my age again" | Joe Jackson | ||
| Better Scene Then Heard | It's cool because it's a "play on words". Instead of being "better SEEN then heard", its changed to "better SCENE then heard". It is a song by an awesome band called AMBRY. | whaleandladder | ||
| Better Than Half Price | I saw it on a health food store. It just sounds like a cool band name. | Rich | ||
| Better Than Sex | My friend said this after eating a triple chocolate brownie, and I just thought it sounded cool. | Crystal | ||
| betterINred | Joss Whedon's "Firefly" is incredible, and this is a cool reference to a funny scene between River and Jayne when she cuts a gash in his chest and says, "You look better in red." | Roo | ||
| Beyond Darkness | This name is cool because it could be used for really any type of music. It was funny how it came up my friends. I were all talking about our geometry test. I said that I was beyond darkness. I knew for sure my mother was gonna kill me but later on I was thinking about how that would be a cool band name for us to use. | bannanna sleves 007 | ||
| Beyond Hidden Death | It's cool because it's the first letter of each word is the frist letter of out band members: B-Bill, H-Heath, D-Daniel, but we don't know if we want to use it because it sounds way too hardcore for the music we play. | daniel | ||
| Beyond Recognition | My band used to be embarrassed to share the old band name we used to have. We decided we needed a new one. I thought that since we have a scorching guitarist and a hot sound we needed something having to do with fire. I thought of "burned beyond recognition". Thus "Beyond Recognition" This also fits out band's personality because we do not need to be widely recognized, we're just playing for fun and respect. | Paul U. | ||
| Beyond Redemption | i heard it in a TV show once...i think it was law & order SVU but anyways System Of A Down owns all | Addicted To SOAD | ||
| Beyond The Scyth | I like this becoz it s unique in its own way, and it makes others think deeply. | Caradog Jones | ||
| Beyond Vomit | We were complaining about how bad our upgraded computers were performing at work, when my co-worker Jay said in disgust, "This computer is beyond vomit!" I said that would be a good name for a band...but it would have to be a really bad band...so bad they would be BEYOND VOMIT! | CJ | ||
| Bi Hawk | i really have no idea why this came to me but i thought it would be cool band logo, a guy with a Bi hawk | Rechz | ||
| Bi-Polar Saint | The manic-depressive tendencies of deeply spiritual people (glorification of spirit, denouncement of flesh) have always fasinated me. | Peter, Simon, and Toy | ||
| Biased Science | My idiot science teacher always says, "Science is not biased. Science is fact!" Hahaha. Well here's my opinion on his "un-baised" science! | Cameron(cammi) Zephyr | ||
| Bibles Twiced Diced | On Gilmore Girls, Rory comments that 'bible kiss bible' would be a good band name. Mine rhymes. :) | Indy | ||
| Bibles Twiced Diced | Ok, It's sacriligious, but on gilmore girls, rory gets a page from lane that says 'bible kiss bible' and notes that that would make a good band name. So does Bibles Twiced Diced! | Indy | ||
| Big And Small | We all like it because I am short and they are tall. | Crazy Lee | ||
| The Big Bang Theory | I was in science class talking about it. Then it hit me, like how something would hit you, that this was a killer band name. | mitch | ||

| BiG DuByA | It's pretty self explanatory, don't ya think? But, if I must, it's named after Dubya himself. You know, the President? 'Nuff said. | Y-yoming Viper | ||
| Big Flozzy | Well when my crusty punk band was looking for a name. We where going through the "Big Book of Words". And that was one of our combos. It was going to be Inca Flozzy at first. but we combinde A song we call Big Sex And "Inca Flozzy" and got "Big Floozy" or Inca sex. Come see us play some time. | Anarchy Jon | ||
| The Big Fore Piece | It's our old bands name. We were once called Rancid Skullfuck | Andy | ||
| Big Furry Pineapple | I knew a guy that had a garage band by this name, but they quit. The name justs sounds cool. | Joe | ||
| The Big R.I.P. | This stands for rest in peace, and also the universe is supposed to expand and rip in the future. They call it the big rip. This would be a good name for a metal band. | enemy909 | ||
| Big Red And The Red Cross | Since my brother has the nickname "Big Red", and the Red Cross is a big thing in the world, why not name a band Big Red And The Red Cross, as long as Big Red is the lead singer? Makes sense to me. | Freedom Rock | ||
| Big Red Ford Station Wagon | Weird dream I had while I was reading an Auto Trader tabloid. | ed swino | ||
| Big Sandwich | It's from one of my favorite episodes of "Wings," where the gang throws Joe and Helen a surprise enagagement party and drags out this big sandwich. Just struck me as funny. | Kristina |
