Names -> Cool Band Names -> Latest Entries
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: | ||
| Slimer Genocide | I was listening to this week's episode of The Greatest Generation (it's a Star Trek podcast) and the hosts were talking about an episode of Voyager where some aliens looked like a skinny version of Slimer from Ghostbusters but I don't remember why the enemy wanted to kill off the entire race | dayna | ||
| Eddy Tutu | I just made it up. | Brionna Secret | ||
| Implied Necromancy | It's from a funny YouTube comment I read | dayna | ||
| Seven Degrees of Kevin Bacon | It's a game that connects Kevin Bacon to anyone else in Hollywood because he's been in so many movies and I have ADHD so that's what it feels like in my head at all times | dayna | ||
| Useless Paperclips | I have a habit of calling people "useless paperclips" (Clippy shout out) when they're being really annoying/ stupid and I thought it would be funny | dayna | ||
| Deadly Nestea Plunge | The news mentioned a dumbass who died of a head injury while practicing "The Nestea Plunge" in a public pool, based on the old TV commercial. Kids, don't try this at home...or anywhere. | Opie M. | ||
| The Rhymers of Eldritch | Named after the play "The Rimers of Eldritch", using it to describe a group of white rappers. | Lance Crackers | ||
| Dr. Pooper | The first laxative soft drink. It feels so good going down (to paraphrase an old Seven-Up commercial.) | Lance Crackers | ||
| Ron Jeremy's Shortcomings | Based on the adult-film star's recent incarceration. He is known for being well-endowed. | Lance Crackers | ||

| Buttcheese & Toejam | Two of the most disgusting things from the human body...together for the first time. | Lance Crackers | ||
| Judge Jury And Executioner | A play on the term "judge, jury, and executioner". No, I didn't forget the commas. The lead singer would go by "Judge Jury" and his backup band would be called "Executioner". | Brian Kelly | ||
| The Dish Network Party Planners | Inspired from the Dish Network ad “When You Really Need TV”. If Dish Network can help with TV while five kids are inside a house while it’s raining, they can help make the party go smoother next time, too. | George&GermaineBriantFan | ||
| Starbucks Pedicure | I wrote two unrelated thoughts in the Notes app on my phone, which was about getting a Starbucks app and getting a pedicure as this and thought it would make a good band name. that being said, they also might get sued by Starbucks for copyright infringement | dayna | ||

| Attack of the Giant Metal Spiders | There's a nine metre tall metal spider outside of the National Art Gallery in Ottawa that's meant to be a symbol of protection and nurturing because the name of it is the French word for "mother" but it just looks like something from a B grade horror movie | dayna | ||
