Names -> Cool Band Names -> C, Page 4
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 C are split into multiple pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6

| Cold Blooded Conundrum | Rolls off the tongue, you know it. Take a guess how it came to be... A Lizard fell in my pool and was trying to get out, so therefor schleptrocks, she/he was in a "cold blooded conundrum" this would be a cool name for a rock group with a hot blood like sound, and if you do not know who hot blood is you suck | Frankie V | ||

| Colorful Blindness | Well, I was actually trying to think of a cool band name, and oxymorons are always cool, so I used it. | DrofMot | ||
| Colostomy Grab-Bag | Pretty self-explanitory, but you can't help but laugh when you think about it. | ThatOneNakedDude | ||

| Commander K. K. | Well, it started out when I was playing Animal Crossing and listening to the funky music of K.K. Slider. Then, I learned of a project in Art class where we had to make plasticine art. I decided to make Commander Keen's (old old OLD computer game) Bean And Bacon MegaRocket, and the rest, as they say, was history. Sort of spacey mixed with funk, I should think. | Douglas Bucksworth aka D.B. | ||

| The Communist Stock Exchange | I thought it would be ironic to combine the Stock Exchange, an offspring of Capitalism, where people often loosely gamble excess of monetary income on the success of other capitalist corporations, with Communism, a socioeconomic system in which this 'exchange' would never exist. Am I dry enough? | Dave | ||
| The Complete Breakfast | I was eating breakfast one morning, and I was looking on the back of one of those cereal boxes and BAM. Band name. | Jack | ||
| Completely Gratuitous Images of P***ses | From the end of Monty Python's The Meaning of Life. Yes, all my band names come from that movie. | Chris | ||

Someone said, "Yeah, I think I'd be a really conscientious whore," and the name just sort of stuck with me. | GGarrett | ||
| Consciousness | I thought of this name as a band name when I saw this on a book. Consciousness is a quality of the mind generally regarded to comprise qualities such as subjectivity, self-awareness, sentience, sapience, and the ability to perceive the relationship between oneself and one's environment. | Jordan Marper | ||
| The Consequences | Every thing has a consequence. I was working on a story, and i was saying that you made a choice so now you have to suffer the consequence, so if i had a band name, that's what it would be called. | mars bars | ||

| Consider Therapy | We come up with it when our music teacher told us (the band) that we should consider therapy. | Ben | ||
| Conspiracy Of The Self | I think it's cool because of how dark it sounds. I came up with it when The Offspring's album name (Conspiracy Of One) popped into my head at moments. Hope ya like it! I now leave you, with Iron Maiden, Number Of The Beast! *starts to headbang* | Violated One |
