Names -> Cool Band Names -> L, 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 L are split into multiple pages: 1 2 3 4
Name | Origin | Submitted by: | ||
| Leon's Pee-ons | Leon is the gay manager played by Martin Mull in "Roseanne". The "pee-ons" are a tribute to working class folks like you and me. | newschool | ||
| Leon's Schedule | In a recent sales meeting, someone commented that the date of a pending lunch with a prospective client would "depend on Leon's Schedule." Since that moment, I've been walking around the office screaming, "Ladies and gentlemen, let's have a nice round of applause for 'LEON'S SCHEDULE!'." Not sure why... | dc | ||

| Leonardo DiCapitated | An artist known who was known to draw bizarre characatures of celebrities as mammals, was on Access Hollywood. He drew a beheaded lion that resembled Leonardo DiCaprio and call it "Leonardo DiCapitated". Instant death metal band name. | star | ||
| The Leopard Boyz | It is so cool because it is based on the coolest movie ever, Cheeteh Girls. | steven | ||
| Les Dog | i was thinking about the les paul guitar and the grateful dead concert DVD called Grateful Dawg. i just thought it sounded cool together | Link9 | ||
| les sauvages | Good for riot ladies. French for 'the savages'. | kate | ||
| Les Voitures | Well, I have quite a few obsessions, two of which are the French language and the band The Cars. So I decided to put them together...The Cars in French is Les Voitures! | Cat | ||
| Les Yeux Mysterieux | I really like french and I wrote a rhyming poem entitled "Les Yeux Mysterieux" HENCE the name! I just came....I guess cause I really really really love french! | Alison | ||
| Lesbian Dan | My best friend dan was going out with a true dog of a girl who he was completely obsessed with...she seemed to think it wasn't cheating on him if she only got with other girls...the novelty soon wore off when she left him for my boyfriend...bygones...still cool name though...i'm thinkin maybe a punk band?! | natz | ||
| Less Insentive Than A Chineese Factory Worker | chinese people are funny | unknown | ||
| Less Talk More Walk | This is is one of many, many band names scribbled over a few pages in a small sketchbook. I'm not sure how I came up with it. As of 07/10/06, it's unused. | Eleya | ||
| Less Than Clever | Was listening to Dexie' s Midnight Runners, and this line struck me as kind of deep... who among us REALLY has all the answers. This title modestly proclaims that we are all in fact on the same journey - a life spent learning | Big D Woman | ||
| The Lesser Evil | it's from that saying 'sometimes you have to choose the lesser evil' and i think it would be great for a hardcore punky goth band cos it kinda has a ring to it. | Rage | ||
| Let Sally Dance | A friend was dancing alone in a club and having a great time. My partner and I figured this was the reason we paid the cover -- well worth the money. | Kim | ||
| Let's Call Helicopters Clouds | I called a helicopter a cloud by mistake, but it seems like a cool band name. | Richard | ||
| Let's Play Tonight | C'mon - by far the best band name thought up. Bunch of guys thinking "Screw it, let's play tonight" | Danny The Manny Bobanny | ||
| LetDoItAndSayWeDidnt | Since alot of band names are just one word-eatmewhileimhot,isetmyfriendsonfire, ect- I though it would be cool to use a well known saying as a band name! and I came up with letdoitandsaywedidnt! | Mariah | ||
| Lethal Injection | come on..... u know today everything sounds cool to us stupid rockin teenagers. why should this be considered bad? i think this name kicks ass! | Yoshiko | ||
| The Lethalizer | It's more a political statement than anything. The other three band members and I were watching something on lethal injection and we thought this would be a great name for a metal band. Also, we created the name because we were sick and tired of all the other bands around our area. We wanted to "lethalize" them and silence them forever. | Steven | ||
| Lettuce Prey | Band Logo: Extreme close-up of a Praying Mantis chomping on something. Those things are wickedly ugly. How I came up with it? It just popped into my head when I was sitting in class, bored, writing out cool band names. | Johnny the K | ||
| Leukemia Kids | We almost picked this name when we wanted something that would really offend people across the board. I dont think anyone wanted to go bald though. | Mr Podgurney | ||
| levado | Me and my four friends come up with this name when we are in a trip. | cris john | ||
| Level Cross | Can't have it both ways. If you start with an X (the cross) and turn it until one of the arms are level, then the other arm will be on a cockeyed tilt. It happens every time. Anyway I do like the word "level" cause it's the same both ways, left to right and right to left while the V in the middle gives it a defined centre point. A cool word back to front or vice-versa. | Murdock MaGoo (gg) | ||
| levelhead | I honestly don't know..........It uhh, means to have "sound judgement", but I just like how it sounds. | jess | ||
| leviathan | Pronounced 'la-vi-ath-an'. The Leviathan is a mythical sea monster. | JORDAN | ||
| Leviathan | Its cool because its one of of the many forms of Satan expressed as a dragon like sea creature, perfect for extreme metal bands | Gazz | ||
| Lexdysia | Alternate self-reference of dyslexia. It has Lex at the front, as in Luthor, and as Lexan clear plastic. Some cool stories are dys-topian - the opposite of utopian. So don't change the syllables, change the order, the way the dyslexic probably do. | vivifizgig | ||
| Liberius | norway folk metal | bill blogg | ||
| Libertines | Got the idea from The Breeders' "Cannonball". Would be good if it were a riot grrrl band. | Lee | ||
| Lickers | I was watching Resident Evil one day, and one of the monster was called a "licker". I thought Lickers would be a cool band name =) | Marishka | ||
| Licking Ashtrays | A non-smoker once told me that smoking was a bad habit and that it was like "licking an ashtray". | Vahtoe Bill | ||
| Lie Before Tragedy | I was just thinking about homeless people, then yeah, there it is. | God | ||
| Liez | My friends and I were standing around the school quad and someone wrote something on my hand. It said, "I Heart Melissa". I'm said, "Give me that pen", and I wrote "Liez". She answered, "Is that your band name?" Duh!! XD not cool. | Chelsea | ||
| Life After Me | My friends and i were trying to come up with a band name that would play on the lips of the fellow students on campus, we were pretty stumped, but then this thought occured to me "what will the world be like after my life?" you know, the words formed and i came up with "Life After Me" sadly though the band broke up and now this great name is back up on the shelf. | volcom llama lover | ||
| Life In A Fish Bowl | I was sitting on my bed looking at my beta fish, (his name is Chop Sueyif anyone is wondering) and me being weird again, I was talking to him . . .I said "Hey buddy, How's that life in a fish bowl?" I thought its sounded pretty awesome, maybe for a rock band who needs to get out and see the world . . . | Janice | ||
| Life In The Shadows | I think it is awsome band name because, i was thinking what it would be like to watch someone live their life but the person who is watching is not actually alive.the name rox! | Rachael Hayden | ||
| Life In Veins | It's based off the premise of "living in vain". It kind of just came to me one day. It seems like it would be a good name for a metal band. | Hugs | ||
| Life Size Marshmallow | Ever seen hay rolled into those white things on the sides of the freeway? Besides it sounds cool. | a couple people with instruments and no name | ||
| A Life Spent Learning | What better way to spend a life? Keep in mind, it doesn't say they are wiser, I guess their songs would have to prove that. Maybe they have "SPENT" it already, and never learned a thing. I have a sister like that, but she seems pretty happy with the results. | Big D Woman | ||
| Life Support System | Struggling musicians who want to play music for a career need a support system to survive. | ME | ||
| Life Support Withdrawn | Life Support withdrawn is cool because in some movies when people are going to die, they say "Shall I withdraw life support, Doctor?" I just thought it was cool. | Connor | ||
| LifeBlind | It's the name of the band i use to be in, we're startin' up a new band now. We used it for our name and we were a punk band. I think it could kinda suit any type of band though. | Drummin' Punk | ||
| Lifestyles of the Confused and Careless | MindGraffiti | |||
| Lift Point | I always see it on the sides of Semi's on the freeway. Seems like an alt rock band name. | Katy | ||
| Light's Darkness | I was just in my english class trying to help my friend Isaac out w/ his band name...and I thought of something...Light's Darkness | Mari-in-love | ||
| Lighting-Rod Of Hate | Its an awesome name for a hardcore metal band with a melodic touch to them. I got it off an episode of "Whose line is it anyways" on abc where Collin said, "Let's make fun of the Bald guy... He will be your the lightning rod of hate. | Virgilio aint gay | ||
| Lightning Duck | It's my bands name. So it's taken!! My friend and I we're discussing about how they have "Mozilla Firefox". He came up with "Mozilla Lightning Duck" to use as a rip-off, ghetto version of Firefox. He's gonna make billions. But once again. TAKEN! | J.T. | ||
| Lightning Jack | how cool is that for an 80s inspired rock band? awesome. i got it from a film with paul hogan and cuba gooding jr in it, crap film, great band name. wicked-phat-trust. haha. | Louis Dude | ||
| Lightning Strikes And Falling Coconuts | Me and my band went to the beach and saw a sign which said, 'beware of lightning strikes and falling coconuts'. We saw that as a sign, literally, to change our bandname. Before that we were called Thunderstruck And Asphyxiating. | Akey | ||
| Like A Panda Lost In Bamboo | It's cool because pandas are the coolest, plain and simple. Also, I believe a panda lost in bamboo can show how people can get lost in familiar environments (e.g how can a person lose who he/she is when they hang out with the same people). | Vanio | ||
| Like It Matters | My friend Vito thought it up when people kept asking for his band name. He said, "Like it matters", as if it matters what the name is. It just stuck. | Von | ||
| Likewise | I guess this sounds pretty cool. I was watching "The Flintstones" one day and... | Ceedles | ||
| Lil Angels | It mean young girls never doing bad. They always save the day no matter wut comes in the way. | Chelsea newcomer | ||
| Lil' Snap | Hey, I wanted to become a rapper when I grew up. I was going to name myself Lil' Snap. | parody_MASTA | ||
| Lilindigo | As I'm quite interested in colours, I put lilac and indigo together. Lilindigo was the result. | Natasha | ||
| Lilindigo | As I'm quite interested in colours, I put lilac and indigo together. Lilindigo was the result. | Natasha | ||
| Limbic System | I was ramdomly looking through the dictionary one day (I have no life)and I found this. The Limbic system is a part of the brain which controls emotions. It would be great for an emo band! lol | Mary Jane | ||
| Lime-Purple | I like limes and the colour puple. | That guy... | ||
| Limit Infiniti | Thought of it in math class when we were talking about infinite limits, thought it sounded cool. You could spell infinity the correct way if you wanted to, but I like it with an 'i' better | Britton | ||
| Limit of Shunt | This is a sign I saw by the train tracks. I have no clue what it means, but it seems to imply, "this is as far as I will be pushed", which I think is cool for a band name. | Jeremy | ||
| Limited Three | At the time, I liked the store Limited Two. But I had three people in the band. | Victoria R. | ||
| Limited Time Only | A friend of mine, who was already in a band, was going to put together a band for the High School Talent Show, but it was only going to be for that one show. Anyways, he was rackin' his brain for a name for the band, and I just quiped out "For a Limited Time Only", which I shorted to Limited Time Only. He loved it, and was gonna use it . . . until he found out the Talent Show had been canceled. | Captain =W= | ||
| Limosine of Turnips | The Spanish artist Salvador Dali once turned up at some sort of exhibition in a limosine full of turnips. | Mz | ||
| Limozene | I think it's cool because it's something of high class. Spelling it wrong, you are making it sound tainted. | tyty | ||
| Limping Gimp Bandits | No matter how far or what time or what day, it would always be easy to catch one of their shows. And if they were great you would hop till you limped, and if they sucked they could change limping to lame. | badboybear | ||
| The Lin Kuei | This would be cool because it's the name of Sub-Zero's tribe from Mortal Kombat | flash_smb | ||
| The Linchpins | It's cool because a linchpin is a device that holds everything else together. I came up with it when I had to make a fake band for a poster I was doing. | David | ||
| Linex | Its a cool name that i thought of when i saw a printer.... and i altered the spelling a little | Josh Branscome | ||
| Link's Awakening | It is based off a Nintendo game, of course it is cool. | Jonathan Jarocki | ||
| LinSpin Theory | I came up with this name when i was listening to Linkin park and New Found Glory that made me think that i could make up my own band, i just want to say ANY can use this name for thir band coz my band have decided to go with another name !!!!!!!!! | Kool-Dude | ||
| Lint | Look in your pocket, its the new thing! LINT IZ EVERYWHERE BIZNATCHES! 0.o | Frizz | ||
| Lion Heart | Ultimate of Squall from "Final Fantasy" and exactly a nice combo like in the bands. It looks like you are doing some combos. | 2ny | ||
| Lip My Stockings | From the Bill Murray film "Lost In Translation", which is set in Japan. Bill plays a commercial actor who meets Scarlett Johansson while filming in Tokyo. He also encounters a Japanese call girl/actress who orders him (in Engrish) to rip her panty hose (what she believes American actors do). Bill mishears this as "lip my stockings". | Japan | ||
| Lip Service | Just a cool band name for a female rock group whose members have big lips or wear really red lipstick. | sherock | ||
| Lip Sti-x | I saw a lipstick thing on the ground. I said, "Ahh, what the heck!" I added an "X". Pretty sweet. | Chris phipps | ||

| Lipstick Suicide | Saw the words "Lipstick Suicide Note" on a supermarket tabloid. How much more emo can you get? | McAlister | ||
| Liquid Blue | Was the name of an event I had once. Thought it'd make a cool band name. | Chelle | ||
| Liquid Cheese | I was at Pizza Hut and I grabbed a slice of pizza and was like, "OW! Liquid cheese! Hey! That would be a cool band name." | Wings Fan | ||
| Liquid Ear Wax | I enjoy cleaning out my ears. But I don't know why I think it's cool, it just is. I mean, the slogan for the band could be, "Our music will be so aggressive to the ears, it'll give you Liquid Ear Wax." | Miles | ||
| Liquid Hatred | It's liquid and you hate it. (Ed.'s note: Love the name; hate the description.] | reak | ||
| Liquid Jelly Monkey Love | Myself and three of my friends all wrote one word on a card. Then we shuffled them and flipped them over, and that's what it came out as. | Cecee | ||

| Liquid Sandpaper | I was in shop the other day (Auto Body Repair) and my teacher was discussing buffing compound. He explained to us that there was Pumice(ohh there's another one!) in the compound so that it would cut through caked on dirt on the surface of a car. "Almost like liquid sandpaper" he said... | Trystan | ||
| liquido | because in spanish, it means water...ok, not actually water, it means liquid, but its the same thing! I came up with it because...mmm...I´m creative! | zurisadai ortega | ||
| Lit Fag | I'ts like super sweet because British people call cigarettes fags, and also it could mean a drunken homosexual. | Nostradamus | ||
| Lithium LoungeAct | Sounds a lot along the line of Union underground. They would probably be a band that mainly sings about drugs, killing, and sex in a hardcore style. | S.T.G. | ||

| Little Black Dress | Sex appeal. I was talking to my friend about her wedding. She wore a black wedding dress. But I misheard, and thought she said that she wore a little black dress. Then I decided that would have to be the name of our band! Just imaging a bride in a sexy little black dress. We are three chicks who rock. | Eskimo Joey | ||
| Little Broken Hearts | i saw it in graffitti on east hastings. and no i don't live there. my dad thought a trip through there would be "educational". | tania | ||
| The Little Brother Exterminators | For the unfortunate sibling who call their little brothers "pests", which is what exterminators like Orkin kill of for a living. Not to be taken literally though. :/ | dell | ||
| Little Cat Z | In "The Cat in the Hat Comes Back" (which, by the way, is the Godfather Part II of children's fiction), the Cat has a long sequence of progressively smaller Little Cat's under each other's hats, in alphabetical order, until Little Cat Z, which was roughly the size of a bromine atom, under whose hat lied VOOM!, the awesome force which, once unleashed, cleans up pink stuff. | McAlister | ||
| Little D*** and the Extenders | How do you THINK I came up with it? | IGNATZ | ||
