Names -> Cool Band Names -> E, 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.

Submitted by:
The E Page Because that's the page that comes up first when I type in this websites name in my searchbar. G
E-Males An internet-themed boy band. Tejayes
Eagle Wilson A parody of Hawk Nelson, since "Eagle" is another kind of bird and "Wilson" is another 6 letter last name that ends in "son" JeReMy
Ear Vomit On one of AVClub's lists of the worst band names of the year, they had a band that described themselves as "8-bit music that would make your ears vomit" JeReMy
Eargasm I was listening to John Lee Hooker. I wanted to describe how it made me feel, and this popped out. Michael
Earned In Blood  I got this from a game. It would be a good Emo or Heavy Metal name. Nick
Earth Bars If they have Mars Bars on Earth, do they have Earth Bars on Mars? The Mole
Earth to Abbagail Me and my cousin Abbagail were talking and then all of the sudden, her brain went weird and everything she started to say came out backwards(literally) and she said, "Oh, Earth to Abbagail." so I thought that I should name my band that because it's just different and perfect at the same time. Eden Rayne
The Earthupials In a class I was once in, the topic of the day was Marsupials, that group of mammals that lack placentas, and mostly have pouches. Somebody asked, Why aren't they Earthupials, since they live on Earth, not Mars? I remembered that through the years, and now, I've eventually thought "Oh, a possible Cool Band Name!". D. Melody Dole, MD
Easier Said Than Done Well, me and my friend were thinking for a band name and I was looking up for unused band names. I got to a useless page but in one paragraph it just said something being easier said than done. I thought, 'Hey, that could work!' Em
East Jesus No where I mean the name is just amazing!!! Sadly I didn't come up with it myself, a friend of mine and I got it from a line in Juno treegirl
Eastcheap Trick Like Cheap Trick, but with a Shakespeare Henry IV twist. Josh
Eat Jude Law In the trailer for "Road to Perdition", Jude Law stands in front of a restaurant as his name comes up. It's right next to a sign reading "Eat" so that it could be read as "Eat Jude Law". Let's just hope he's fine with it. Brian Kelly
Eat My Wetnap sitting in a chinese restaurant, me and friends were conversing. the hostess gave us wetnaps to clean our hands with after the meal. friend #1 said he wished he still had soemthing to eat. friend #2 said here. eat my wetnap. jpr
Eat the Buss Stop Very Punk name, especialy with the double "s" on bus. It comes as with all good things, from a drunk. Hunting Town
Eat the Emu MY friend and I came up with this one, we liked the alliteration... we decided that thier first album would be "Too Cool To Masticate" after seeing an anti-tobacco ad that said "too cool to chew" on the side of a truck. Meredith
Eating Horses' Gallbladders It is a little-known fact that horses don't have gallbladders. So this name might lend a certain grunge band-like quality to a band, considering the little-known nonexistence of what it refers to, even though it would actually imply doing nothing or eating nothing. Marge Pegram
Eating Is Cheating Heard someone at the Glastonbury festival on the radio talking about how they managed to go all weekend without food or sleep - their exact words were 'Sleep is for wimps and eating is cheating.' Not a great lesson for life but could make a decent band name.  Slinky J
Eating The Flesh Of Kings Thus be the calling & the glory of the common Urth worm. After all, where are humans on the food chain of the universe? Mr.Ree
EBK EBK was originally a 'cult' at our school, it stood for Emo Bashing Kids. Then we made an 'eno' band and called ourselves EBK, which we felt was appropriate. Andrew

Echo Of Silence One day, it was just quiet, and I heard a silent noise every time I would talk. Big-Mitch
Echohead This came to me when my friend said that "thoughts echo in your head" and it developed from that XAVIER
Echoing Silence I was watching a rerun of an episode of the game show Idiotest earlier tonight and one of the contestants was a guy who said he was playing in a band with this name (so it was a real band). I think it was from about 6 or 7 years ago so who knows if the band's still together. But it's cool because it's ironic or contradictory, since the word "silence" of course means a total absence of sound. Edward
Echoquack A duck's quack does not make an echo (according to legend). t. craycraft
Eclipse 79 My mom gave this shirt to me that she got at the solar eclipse in 1979. I've had several people tell me "they've never heard of that band" when they see the shirt. Lizzard Lady

Now picture Ed working at a big, bulky machine, spitting smoke and sparks. That's Ed's Machine. Now picture four metallic heads poking out of the top of the machine. That's the band. There you have it. Ed's Machine. Ehh... I drink too much. H. B. Kaltenborn

Editors May Dissapprove A joke I got from being on this website so much. G
Edna's Skivvies  hank
Edumacated Peeple I had a friend who couldn't say educated and always ended up saying edumacated... i thought of this while we were watching t.v. and my friend said look at all the edumacated peeple! and I thought it would make a good band name. And people spelled wrong...very "edumacated", don't you think? miya
ee cumming After the famous poet ee cummings, who never capitalized nor punctuated his name. Of course, a double entendre.  opm
Effer All those annoying kids that never say f***er say muther effer. Nina Cayley
Efil Drawkcab It's "Backward Life" spelled backwards. This is inspired by a few things. The first is how I live what I like to call a "backward life"(long story). The second is that I read a poem/story that had one character talking backwards. The third is that the wizard Merlin supposedly lived his life backwards. The fourth is that I can read and write backwards and my father and I sometimes think backwards.  300 Bernard St. Girl
Egg In The Phonebook At my school, we have an "Egg Drop" every year to see what devices can keep an egg from breaking. Well, this one boy in my class said to another boy in my class, "Do you want the egg in the oxyclean jug or the egg in the phonebook?" And I instantly thought it would make a good band name. Rachel
Egg Shells Well I was looking for a cool band name and this one kinda came to mind. Kevin
Egg-A-Car The perfect band for teenagers looking to cause trouble in their neighborhood. I thought this up after seeing a commercial where a car gets egged. Just don't get caught, unless you want to pay a $91 fine. Cow
EggFart Was sleep-driving one night & woke up on the floor of a truckstop men's room. Was about 10 feet from a 60-sumpn guy @ urinal in process of squeezing out post-breakfast hi-test, to which he succinctly commented, "EggFart". stevie chipmunk
The Eggs It's not taken! G
Eggs Come From Cows my friend actually told a bunch of 3rd graders that eggs came from cows, and she was totally for real!!! when we all started laughing at her, she realized what she said and pretended like she it was no big deal, but she was so stupid!!! we still rag her about it the great gillian
Egnaro its orange spelled backwards i heart tswizzle
Ego Jan and the Rhinos From a misheard lyric in "Big Ol' Jet Airliner" by the Steve Miller Band. They could perform Steve Miller Band covers, and have a narcissistic female lead singer. Olvan The Terrible

Egregious Philbin Sometime Regis Philbin can be annoying... RevengeFromMars YouTube
Eight Eye My friend plays the cello, and I want to learn guitar, so we were joking about weird bands. We're 'smart kids' and we both have really terrible eyesight, you know, four eyes. So, four eyes+four eyes=eight eyes, and that has the whole arachnid aspect (spiders)... Miss K.
Eight Thousand This is the Eight Thousandth submission. Thom
Einstein's Lab Rats I am a huge Einstein fan. Huge scientist geek.  Behind The Front

The Ejaculators If it's an all guy band....well, that's what they are. Mike Lydic
Ekans Dilos It's "Solid Snake" backwards. It came from a video from a YouTube channel called "Game Grumps". When the guys in the video noticed that the Pokemon character "Ekans" was "snake" backwards, they figured out what Metal Gear Solid main character Solid Snake would be backwards. However, their backwards name was actually "Snake Solid" backwards, since they didn't change the order of the words to truly be a backwards form of the name. JeReMy
Ekno Tank I saw a Econo Lodge and I mispronounced it and then I saw a big green tank and put them together to get Ekno Tank. PuffDaddymac

Elastic Limit We were tossing about a deflated excersize ball when my brother said "i think this ball has reached it's elastic limit." - we decided it would be a cool band name, if you're willing to put up with the fact it could be used as a "your mum" reference.. mmmhmmm

Electric Catfish The dumbest sounding thing I can think of at the moment. GlamRockNinjaLord
Electric Charity It's a play on "electric chair". That is one reason it is cool. I came up with it at my old job (that I got laid off from - so don't try and come up with band names at work). Another reason it is cool - it sounds like the band would be giving something away, which I think is true with music. Bands do give something away to listeners (yes, even though we pay to listen - except for those no good piraters, you know who you are). steven kent
Electric Gophers We were thinking up names for our soccer team and I came up with Electric Gophers. Little Lion
