Names -> Cool Band Names -> H, 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.

Name | Origin | Submitted by: | ||
| Hooray For Holly Weird | A take off on the old "Hooray for Hollywood". My weird girlfriend Holly. But I love her anyway... :) | Steve | ||
| Hoover Damn! | It's like the Hoover Dam, but it's not. | JeReMy | ||
| Hope 41 | I think it would be cool for a Christian band/comedy group name, because if you mix a lot of feel-good Christian songs with a lot of CLEAN comedy, the results will be a lot of happy people! Also, you'll get a hidden message inside the name: Hope For EVERY One! | AVM | ||
| Hope Ends With Girlfriends | its kool cuz its diffrent i came up withit from all the girl problems ive had | Drewbie | ||
| Hope Fails | Sounds depressing. But hey, love it all the same. ;) | lucy babes | ||
| Hopeless Authority | I used it for a while but never worked out. In my case, it means that our government is screwed. | =-=- AgOnY ScEnE -=-= | ||
| The Hopeless Romantics | I came up with this band name when me and three friends grouped up and started playing tribute songs to other bands. Since we all have never been lucky in love (and we were all romantic in some way), we decided to call ourselves "The Hopeless Romantics". We are not a published band, just a few teens playing together. This is our name and if anyone steals it, this is my proof it is mine. | Alexander Ryan Prates | ||
| Horizontal Disco | Obviously not the same as a vertical disco. | RevengeFromMars YouTube | ||
| Horizontal Mambo | I have this guy friend who calls sex the horizontal mambo. I make fun of him for it, but secretly think its awesome. | shan | ||
| Horizontal Occupation | Politically correct name for "hooker". | billy | ||
| The Horn Strobes | A horn/strobe is the most common type of audiovisual fire alarm device in the USA, literally a buzzing horn and a flashing strobe light combined in one unit. I just think it has a nice ring to it as a band name. | Mike | ||
| Horn-Swooped Bungo Ponies | Read it on the sleeve of Blue Oyster Cult album, Cultosaurus Erectus. A fictitious dinosaur. | YCS Digital Foundation | ||
| Horned Hobbits | I was watching "The Lord of the Rings", and the Hobbit looked like it had horns in one of the scenes. I thought it would be an awesome band name. | Me. Duh | ||
| Horny Mormons | i must say i wud have been happy to have thought this up however it is a bay area (San Francisco, Oakland) punk band. they are signed on lookout records. this name mainly just cracks me up its kinda an oxymoron. | skizzel | ||
| Horse Grinder | Group doing music like Aphex Twin's Come to Daddy with turntables, samplers, bass, guitars, vocals and lots of distortion. Still danceable. Sort of electro-clash meets grind-core. | the gnrl | ||
| Horse Hockey | It was said in an episode of "M*A*S*H" by Colonel Potter. Would probably fit a Canadian or Minnesota hard punk band. | old | ||
| Horton Eat's A Shoe | Not many people were aware, that when our good friend Dr. Suess lost his grip on reality, he penned this unfinished work as a follow-up to "If I Ran The Gulag". | princejellyfish | ||
| Horton Scratches His Peg | Dr. Suess's first and only trip to "Burning Man", was the inspiration for this gem after he caught a wicked case of "The Sneeches" | princejellyfish | ||
| Hose Rack on Prozac | Old rockers, they all have them and they're all on drugs...after being a has been ,Prozac. | alchem99 | ||
| Hostage Amish | It doesn't really tie you to one particular music genre.It's amusing and the Amish aren't going to find out about the band, unless they're kidnapped and forced to listen to a CD player. | TwoLeggedHamster | ||
| Hostages Of Life | I'm only twelve, but once i'm about sixteen, I'm going to start it up. So my brother and I decided we might make a band. We sat down and started thinking. We came up with a whole bunch weird names like Silent Scream, Bullet Proof Lies and finally I came up with Hostages of Life. My brother wanted Bullet Proof Lies and I wanted Hostages of Life. So we asked our mother which one she liked better. She said Hostages of Lies. | chase craft | ||
| The Hostile Pentacostals | There isn't too many Christian rappers and the few that are out there suck and are too wimpy to battle. So to state what i'm about I open with "I'm a hostile pentacostal..." in one my raps. | Buzzard Nalley ( real name ) | ||
| Hostile Puppets | We are the puppets of the government we are ruled by. But sometimes after all the oppression, we become hostile. It's one more way to remind the the loving, suit wearing idiots that the only thing that counts is what the people of a nation have to say. | Jolie | ||
| Hostile Takeover | used to be my band's name....very cool indeed | S.D.T. / Ben | ||
| Hot Chicks And Drag Queens | Sitting in a restaurant, my waiter friend said that he just served a table full of hot chicks and drag queens, which automatically sounds like something out of the mind of Lou Reed. | DAVID HARGARTEN | ||
| Hot Daughter | My brother's idea. Why? Because some dude might suck, but he might still have sexy female progeny. | Gomer Pyle | ||
| Hot Dog Biopsy | A perfect name for a black metal band, although it is nebulous regarding whether they are biopsies done on or with hot dogs. | Jason Reeher | ||
| The Hot Dog Jockies | My dad made it up when I was looking for a band name. We didn't use this one, but it's cool anyway. | Heather | ||
| Hot I | Just something that my sister said to warn me not to put plasticware on the "hot eye" of the stove, because the plastic would melt. I decided it needed a more narcisstic meaning. | Indy | ||
| Hot Ice | 30 years ago we used this name for our club band in NJ. Seemed like a "cool" name because we were cool and the band was "hot" We played the tri-state area Jersey shore in summer Bear Mt and NY NJ in winter Back til '78 Now that you know that were probably aren't "cool" anymore (though I still have my 63 P-bass). | Drew Troeder | ||
| Hot Ice | The character Hilda in the anime series "Outlaw Star" is nicknamed "Hot Ice" Hilda. It kinda sounds like a rock band, no? | Da Phoenix | ||
| Hot Liquid A**Fault | Good punk band name | LoveBoatCaptain | ||
| Hot Pink Nothing | Nothing like a chainmail name survey to come up with cool band names. | Alex | ||
| Hot Russian Olive Online | I saw an ad on amiright.com reading "Hot Russian Ladies Online". Suddenly there popped into my mind a phrase "Hot Russian Olive Online". Russian Olive is a plant (Elaeagnus angustifolia) that has become an invasive problem in some areas, including much of the U.S. This shrub is native to a considerable stretch of southwest and south central Asia, it's range taking in only a relatively small portion of southern Russia, and it is not an olive. The phrase that popped into my head seems rather bizarre, because who should want to purchase online a shrub that has become an invasive problem in many places? But then I realized that, like some incongruous band names, it might make for a cool one! | D. Melody Dole, MD | ||
| Hot Salsa Chips | Well, everybody likes hot salsa, RIGHT? And everyone likes chips, RIGHT?If this was a real band then they'd drink salsa before singing...I mean, they'd be friends with the Red Hot Chili Peppers!!! | Neokid | ||
| Hot Theory | Kendra | |||
| Hot Wax | cuz it has a double meaning. it could mean like the hot wax for your car or a steamy masturbation session | lee brasic | ||
| Hot-N-Sexy Natoman | Okay... So on the website tashari.org, there's a picture of the nerdiest guy ever, named Nate. The title was 'Hot_N_Sexy_Natoman' and the description was "Why Steve thinks Nate is hot and sexy I will never know." It's funny in location I suppose. Also, Natoman is my brother Nathan's nickname, though he's not hot and sexy, lol | Bean | ||
| Hotel 12 | Funny story, heh. A friend and I were seeing a movie at the theatre, and my date was meeting us there. Since he had other intentions for dating me, my friend and I were discussing the situation. He called to find out which theatre we were in. And having other subjects on the brain, instead of saying 'Theatre 12', I replied 'Hotel 12' and laughing histerically, blushed. | brittani | ||
| Hotel of Unhallowed Horrors | Herman P. Mudget was a serial killer a long time ago that opened a hotel in chicago (it might not be chicago, but still) and every room was rigged as a death chamber. thet got me thinking... who doesnt like a band name based on a killer. | eddsworld300 | ||
| Hotpause | It's the opposite of Coldplay! | nancy | ||
| Hotstop | like coldplay but not but then it wud be linked to a girls g spot so maybe not... help!!!! | helen | ||
| HotWire | I thought of this name while I was at school. I think it's cool because a bunch of bands today have a serious attitude, and when you think of HotWire, you think of somebody actually hotwiring a car, which is serious business. So I thought HotWire would make a band sound serious. | Colton | ||
| Hotwired Dummies | At the autoshow looking at those dummies in the car. Sequel to CRASH CAR DUMMIES. | Frank | ||
| Hour Glass | I thought that this was a really cool name. It just sounds cool,and I really like it. It just popped into my head as I was looking at all of these band names. | coolestgrlullevermeet | ||

| House of Cards | Me and my friends who have a band (but had no band name at the time) were bored one day and we were trying to build a house of cards. Then I said "why don't we just call our band house of cards?" Everyone agreed. | GothicPunkGirl | ||
| House Of Flies | It was in a Deftones song title, so why not? | Lance Crackers | ||
| House On A Rock | We got it kind of from the bible? Are band is a Alternative Punk Christan Band. Are logo is a house on a rock an it's all night time with a big huge moon in back of the house.The house look's all lonley on a huge rock that look's like a mounain. | Steve,Mat,Brian,Chunk's | ||

| Household Waste | i was goin' back from town and thought about making up a nu metal band and my mate, chris, stares out da bus and sees a truck that says "household waste" and cos it's so random we decided it sounded cool! | mr frodo | ||

| Hroblak | My husband used to jam with a guy with this last name. It sounded really unique. | Rhonda Oglesby | ||

| Hugs Not Drugs | I am really wanting to start my own band so i was wanting something that sounded like me so i thought of "hugs not drugs" because thats like my #1 catchphrase (weird...i know) lol | Xstephany<3 | ||
| Human Albumen | I see it as a heavy metal band name. I was collecting boxes from the back of the hospital for an upcoming move. When we were packing, there were various pieces of paper in the boxes explaining how to use the rubber gloves, etc. This particular box had held human albumen. | LB | ||
| Human Limit | cuz theres only so much a Hunam can hold inside. | Mickey | ||
| Human Soup | I wonder what that would look like..... | joe122 | ||
| Human Tails | From Fern Gully: The Last Rainforest. "Human Tails? Humans don't have tails, they have big bottoms that they wear bad shorts, and they walk around going 'HI HELEN'." | mtndue1 | ||

| Hungry Ghosts | Pathetic lost souls from Hindu mythology that eternally long for food and drink, but can't consume any of it because of their inhumanly-thin necks; suitably exotic, obscure, and morbid for a metal band, wouldn't you say? | CC | ||
| Hungry Hungry Hippos | Hippos are totally pimp, and that game is epic... I think that would be an awesome band name. | Elle | ||
| Huntrezville | Lester's Brandy cousin name loves brandy | jo | ||

| Hustlin' Hand Grenades | One day, I walked in 7th Heaven, looking for some items to buy. I was looking through their CD section, and there was a misplaced album "Hustlin'" in front of a Green Day album. The album cover on ("American Idiot") it was a heart/hand grenade. | Robert Horotn | ||
| Hybrid | Because hybrid means a mix of two things to make a better thing, so mayb if your band was alternative rock or a mix of mayb grunge and rap would suit it and also u can add names on the end of it like "warriors" or "lab rats" or even "geeks" | EdB???żżż | ||
| Hybrid Vigor | It's from Key & Peele. They used the term to describe how interracial people, which both stars of the show are, have the best qualities of each race, in their case, white and black. They said that it should be the name they use for a rap group if they had one. | JeReMy | ||
