Names -> Cool Band Names -> L, Page 3
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: | ||
| 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 | ||
| Ligbee | I don't know | Elon Muskrat | ||
| 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 95 | A reference to the movie Cars that sounds like a Sum 41/Blink 182 ripoff. Why not? | JeReMy | ||
| 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 Fat Kid Loves Cake | My aunt from South Carolina once said she loved my parents and me "like a fat kid loves cake" | JeReMy | ||
| 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 | ||
| Lili Zanotto | A character in 2005 video game Psychonauts. Thought of it when I was playing SSX On Tour (another 2005 game), which had a band in the soundtrack which sounds like a name for a single person, Billy Talent. | JeReMy | ||
| 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 | ||
| Lillian's Wish | My friend and I were doing homework and talking over MSN, and he asked what song I was listening to I told him "Lillian" (by Plus 44) and he answered "'Wish" (Nightwish, he's too lazy to type that out). Then we thought it'd be cool if he renamed his band "Lillian's Wish". He's done that now and their CD covers (which they make themselves) feature a zombie-like, dead or goth anime girl, named Lillian. | Shan | ||
| Lily Maxi Pad | A lily pad + a femine hygiene product=Drier frogs. | Opie M. | ||
| 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 Limpkins | Since there are numerous bird names for bands, including The Larks, The Sandpipers, The Flamingos, and The Eagles, here's another bird name I thought I'd suggest! | D. Melody Dole, MD | ||
| The Lin Kuei | This would be cool because it's the name of Sub-Zero's tribe from Mortal Kombat | flash_smb | ||

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 | ||

| 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 Love | Heard an "actor" use the term in a really bad porno movie. | Matty | ||
| Liquid Measure | On my grandparents fridge there is this magnet that says "Liquid Measure" and I always thought that would be a great name for a rock band. | Linbrethil | ||
| 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 | ||

| Lita Margarita | Tila Tequila's cousin? Or a Tejano band? | RevengeFromMars YouTube | ||

| 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 | ||
