Names -> Cool Band Names -> P, 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.

Entries starting with P are split into multiple pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6

The Pie is Finite I was up late one night reading an essay for school, and I hated everything the author stood for. But at one point in the essay, he says something like, "The pie can expand, but at some point the pie is finite." That was the only phrase in the paper I liked or agreed with. Then I thought, hmm, a punk band called "The Pie is Finite" Cool, huh. GypsyTryxx
Piece Be Steel My cousins and I love the Madea plays and there's this line in one of them that goes, "As it says...in the book of Revelationsuh....The Lord said, Peace be still. Piece...be steel. Piece is made of steel." and then Madea whips out a gun. So ummm..yeah Ichigo_Indigo
Pieces of the Comet I was watching the Sci-Fi Channel once and they had a commercial for the movie "Meteorites". They showed an astronomer saying "The pieces of the comet are not breaking up." and ever the wise-guy, I joked "In fact, they're working on a new album." Brian Kelly
Pigeon me and my mates were standing around one day, when a huge pigeon flew down and landed on our table. one of my friends Josh yelled "AH! PIGEON!" and the rest is history. SystemOfADownJunkie
Piggy Bank Thiefs  Just think is a cool name for a rock band, sort of foo fighters style is kind of hilarious to and I find cool Cocco
pigs in labour kittie should call themselves that because they sound like traumitized pigs dipsy
Pimp Pill Sounds like pimple d2nice
The Pimpeks actually , i didn't come up to that name, my 2 friends imagined it bcs they are starting a punk-rock band, it's an english version of a croatian word ( pimpek in croatian means d*** but in the way you tell it to little children). i think that's a cool name riA
Pimple Faced Losers Well one day I was listening to The All-American Rejects and started thinking about cool "punkish" rock band names that described me and my friends. Well I guess the reason for the "Pimple Faced" part is becuase we all had acne on our faces (like most teens). As for the "Loser" part it was really just becuase we're probably never going to be anything really "unique" in our lives. So ye I think it sounds awsome.  Josh (Josue)
The Pina Coladas Ok however the hell u spell pina colada, it would make a cool spanishy name for a bunch of illegal Mexicans trying to slap together a makeshift band or a group of white blonde-haired kids trying to seem cool by starting a rock group. Nader
Pina Colonic From the Simpsons episode where Homer gets a coupon for a free colonic, and starts singing that Rupert Holmes song with changed lyrics. "If you like pina colonics..." Olvan The Terrible
The Pinball Dodgers "Pinball Dodge" was a type of dodgeball game played while I was in grade school at Maryland. The object was to knock down all of other team's bowling pins (5 to a team), as opposed to regular Dodgeball where the opposing team members are hit and eliminated. It still hurt! But no one was called out, just the pins that were knocked down. game
Pinball Wizards From the Who song. (I think...) Princess Ana
Pinche Party My mastering of the Spanish and English language has left me with many Spanglish tokens of wisdom..."pinche party" means f***ing party and if your're a heavy rock/alterntative band, all you want to do is have a pinche party. You gotta say the name with a heavy accent in order to be authentic. lickety split

Pink Tobacco We were watching baseball, and there was this one player that was chewing something. My friend was certain it was tobacco, but I was certain it was bubble gum. When he blew a bubble, I laughed at her, but she said "No, it's pink tobacco!" We thought it was a funny name. No takers so far, though. Mariam
PinkJennyFist My friend made a comic by the name of PinkJennyFist. The girl in that comic starts a band and it becomes pretty popular...PinkJennyFist would be a great name for a punk band.  Lindz

At one point he said, "Sorrowfully, your daughter was involved in the Pixi Stick Disaster on the bus number 5226. .." Ever since than I thought it would be a PERFECT band name because phor one is sounds phantastic, and phor another, he said, "sorrowfully,you daughter [is] involved in the Pixi Stick Disaster" I think that makes it sounds so typical like- parents againsnt music type thing and i LOVE IT.. ever since than- which has been 2 years ago, i've loved it and currently am in a band called.

Planet  enemy909
Planet Dearth The word "dearth" (rhymes with "earth") means "scarcity" or "famine." I came across the term "Planet Dearth" in the James Patterson novel "Along Came a Spider" and immediately thought it would be a cool name for a band that plays music along the lines of grunge or hard rock. Da Phoenix

Playing with words gives me a kick whenever I find a good one, like Y.A.M.S., C.U.T.S., L.I.V.E. (Life is Very Entertaining)... you get the picture. Raedyn
Playing In Traffic Nothing screams "rock/metal" like intense or dangerous situations (for band names), and what's more dangerous than playing in traffic? R. U. Obsest
