Names -> Cool Band Names -> G, 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 G are split into multiple pages: 1 2 3

| The Glass Is Half Empty | Well, I thought of this because I just brought a band together an we was (still are) havin some SERIOUS trouble thinkin of a name an I just said, " Well I guess for us the glass is half empty..." then it slapped me in the face an I just thought it was a really great name. =D | pyroidiot<--------- | ||
| Glass Onion | This name should be revived. It's also a Beatles song. | JMU grad | ||
| Glitched | It's cool because, it's a one basic comment. It will keep you thinking. People will ask themself what it means. I was recording when I came up with the name. My Mackie 24 track seemed to have had a problem and my friend Mike said it was "glitched." I went from there. | Brady | ||
| Glitter Makes You Shiny | I was trying to think of band names for my new band, and all of a sudden I thought of pixies. ( God help my sanity) The I thought pixies are shiny. GLITTER MAKES YOU SHINY! Its obvious, stupid, and you know there are some people who would pour glitter on themselves. I however doubt we will use the name. | Kris | ||
| Global Gore | I came up with this name thinking about wars and gang violence. | Jorge | ||

They faced south and began yelling out to hear their echos. Finally one of the guys yelled NUMB NUTS and soon from the south the echo returned GNOME GNATS, and the rest could be history. | Badboybear | ||
| Go Mongo Mongo | Der it tis mon, fine Reggae tunes mon, doncha no mon! | badboybear | ||
| Go To Hell | When people ask you what your band is called, you can tell them to go to Hell. They will be like, "Woah man, I just asked you what your band was called" Then you can be like, "Uuuh, yah I told you, dude." | Cassidy | ||
| Go-Cart Mozart | From "Blinded By The Light" (Springstien/Manfred Mann) I think there must be a hundred great sounding names in that song.... If you could catch all the lyrics !! | Steve Dunkley | ||
| Goalie Moses | Play on words with "Holy Moses!". I'm a big hockey fan, and I got an image of Moses in the net one day. | cainnum | ||

| God Loves Jack | Actually God loves Jack Kovorkian, Jack s*** , Jack Russell terriers, Jack be nimble, etc etc | mike | ||

| God Wears Wingtips | one day, i was sitting in my ethics class and my teacher was talking about god walking into our classroom. i started thinking about god and i wondered what kind of shoes he wears. i think he'd wear white wingtips just because that would be cool. | paige | ||

| Going Against the Grain | Baby Boomers fighting back band. I'm so young at heart. | Terry | ||
| Going Nova | On a computer game, somebody says 'going over' but it sounded like 'going nova'. | Henry | ||
| Gold Topaz | This was inspried by another name on the cool band name list. Someone had come up with the name Silver Electric, so I figured I could come up with something to go with gold, and this is what I got. I just like the way it flows off the tongue | Ed | ||
| Gold-Knub | I was looking at my door. It has a golden Knob. I changed the o into a u because i was thinking of a midget with a golden knub where his little tiny hand should be! | Kevin Schulte | ||
| The Golden Avacados | It's cool because it has no hidden meaning, but it sounds like it might. | Ishkabible | ||
| The Golden Hemroids | It's actually in the Bible, no joke, it talks about God giving people golden hemroids. I'm not sure what that signifies, but I think it represents "Royal (Golden) pains in the ass(Hemroids)" | FreakyDeaky | ||
| Golden Monkey | From this book I read once that had a creepy gold monkey in it. | RocketGurrl | ||
| The Goldfish Platoon | I was thinking about wars and stuff. Then I thought, "What would the fish be like during a war?" | Niall Biddy | ||
| Goldfish Tornado | A few friends and I went to a really crappy aqarium, and the was this old guy there giving tours of the place, and we were half expecting this old cad to put his arm in there and swirl the water around to get the fish moving. The next thing I could think of him to say was "look, sonnys, it's a Goldfish Tornado!" and then laugh in some old man maniacal laugh. I think it would be a good name for a band. Kinda punk, kinda garage-metal. | Shawn the Parrothead | ||
| Goldy Lox and The Three Gay Pigz | I came up with it, when i just got confused between children fairy tales. | FreakyDeaky | ||
| Golf Cart Supremacy | Picture a golf cart pawning a monster truck. I came up with this after hearing about this Korean kid from Florida who was hitting on my sister. My friend telling about some titles of Helloween's albums. The Korean kid made me think of doing drive-bys on a golfcart with Mickey Mouse ears. He said that in Florida, the gangsters are all real, while in NY, they are all posers. The names Helloween came up with for their albums sorta warped my mind. | Jack Rittymanee | ||
| Golgotha | I made this up, it's to do with death and religion, perfects for rock bands. | Uniquesox | ||
| Goliath | The mythical 9 foot tall man that David defeats in battle as told in the Bible. It also means huge or enormous; it kind of has a ring to it, like behemoth. | josh niwot | ||
| Gomar & Shioh | The name of a pilot duo from the racing simulation F-Zero GX. Always thought it'd be interesting to have a band of say, 4 members, referred to as a pairing. Like the Thompson Twins. | Heathcliff the Cat | ||

| The Goo | Well I saw a licence plate that said "The Goo", and I thought it would be a cool rapper name. | Culater | ||
| Goobertown Grocery | Its cool because I have an old vintage sign from a real grocery store called Goobertown Grocery and it just sounds good for a band name | Webberoni | ||
| Good Blunts | It is a good name for a band, especially if most of the members smoke buds. I came up with the name after the phrase "good times" had been overused around my school and area. So instead of saying "good times" we say "good blunts." | Mickey | ||
| Good Charleston | Charleston is where I live and my best friend is a HUGE fan of Good Charlotte (Billy is hers). | Ezra | ||

| Good In The Sack | They are actually a band out of Austin. I thought it would be cool to introduce the bank as "Hi, we're Good in the Sack." | A-Lex | ||
| A Good Name For A Band | A Swedish punk band calls themselves "A Good Name For A Band", which doesn't need any explanation. It's just an awesome name for a band! | Joe | ||
| Good Question | Why is it cool? Leme give you some imagery: You're in a packed club and a band is playing onstage..youve missed their name..so you ask the person beside you, screaming over the ear abusing music, 'What's this band called?' he, hearing your question, nods and shouts back, 'Good Question!' it could be BEAUTIFUL man...just don't knock it till ya try it. | Murray | ||
| The Good Things | I love Fall Out Boy and their song "My Heart is the Worst Kind of weapon". In that song it says "you wouldn't know a good thing if it came up and slit your throat." yup. Thats my reason. | Bob | ||
| Good With Waffles | Can you picture a frontman screaming "Thanks for coming! Goodnight, we're Good With Waffles!"? It'd be awesome! I came up with it as a joke when my band was discussing names. | Mac Willaert | ||
| Goodie Poets | My friend and I always go over to this chicks house and they're always saying how good we are. That we never get into trouble and such. Anyways, my boy said yeah, we the goodie mob. But since that name was taken by a rap group we changed it to the Goodie Poets. | Rebel With A Cause | ||
| Goodwill Massacre | Seemed like a cool heavy metal band name. I misread a sign outside a church. | glad - H! | ||

| Gran Sabor y Super Cronch! | I saw this on a cereal box in Mexico. The Spanish bit means "Great Flavor" It would be a funny name, but I don't know for what type of band. | Joe Montmatre | ||
| Grand Larceny | Well, larceny means the act of stealing and theft. So if you are going for that whole metal or something that means theft and breaking the law, the shoe should fit. | Zack M | ||
| Grand Stylus | It's cool because it sounds cool. It's part of a gramaphone, which makes it old school. =D | kid rock jack | ||
| Grand Theft Daughter | This is what I thought the video game "Grand Theft Auto" was called. | sam | ||

| Grandma Swears > Me | Not to be redundant, but COME ON! How weird would it be if the members of the band had grandmothers that swore more than them? This was inspired by my backwards life. The part I'm talking about is the fact that my brother scoulds my grandmother for swearing, not the other way around. How weird is that? | 300 Bernard St. Girl | ||
| Grandmas in Spandex | Whenever I come across something I find disturbing, I try to get it out of my head by thinking of something I find even more disturbing...but kind of funny too. All I could think of one particular time was Grandmas in Spandex and then it hit me. That would be a great band name. Could either work for a comedy rock band or an all-girl punk group. | Cat | ||
| Granny Sweat | Shane Colton | |||
| Grape Ape | This is an old 70's cartoon with a giant purple ape. He would shout, "Grape Ape, Grape Ape!" and run around like an idiot smashing things. Sounds like some band members that I know. | joe | ||
| Grape Smugglers | It's from Biodome. Its a great line. NAIL POLISH!! | Ian | ||
| Grape Without The G | because its a take on a stupid emo band, Taking Back Sunday and their song "Cute Without The E", except that it's now "Grape Without The G". | Taking back wednesday | ||
| Grapefruit Kiss | I was drinking red grapefuit juice the other day, and thought "WoW. This is so good. Sweet but bitter at the same time. Kindof like lost love." Thought it might make for something musical, like a band name, or a song title. | Teri | ||
| Grass Be Green | We where just screwing around talking about something if there weren't certain words. Someone said "grass be green". We just liked it. | Shade | ||
| Gratefull war | chris | |||

| Great Expectations | We're starting a band-ish thing and trying to think of a name. I was looking at my book shelf and saw the book (by Charles Dickens) and it stuck. Nobody else liked it though. | blah | ||
