Names -> Cool Band Names -> S, 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 S are split into multiple pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
Name | Origin | Submitted by: | ||
| Seperated From Society | Good name for an anti·social type band. At school thats what they call the anti·social type kids, Seperaated from Society. I think it just sounds cool. | Delaware Defect | ||
| Sephiroth | This name was cool because I was playing "Final Fantasy" and Sephiroth showed up. So I googled it and found out that it is the ten attributes of God. Pretty cool huh? | Dude person | ||
| Sephiroth | This name was cool because I was playing "Final Fantasy" and Sephiroth showed up. So I googled it and found out that it is the ten attributes of God. Pretty cool huh? | Dude person | ||
| Sephiroth and the Space-Age Swamis | Final Fantasty 7 is cool, Sephiroth is cool and swamis are funny. | IHaveNoBrain | ||
| Seppuku | ritual suicide, need i say more? a great deathgrind band name. | \m/att | ||
| September Bailey | A girl I know took one of those online surveys where you have to see what your name would be if you combined your birth month and pet. And I thought this was perfect, just sounds quite good. | Alex | ||
| September Hogs | Good name for a band of full of old rockers. | Pablo Impractica | ||
| September Is Over | It's a play on Green Day's song "Wake Me Up When September Ends". | saverock'n'roll@saverock'n'roll.org | ||
| September Skizes | I like it because me and a friend were writing songs one night in September. We needed a band name, so we thought about a song we (I) wrote called " Touch the Sky". Soon after that, September skizes came out. | caleb mooneyham | ||
| Sequin Eater | A.Kellett | |||
| Seraf Tisnart | it sounds arabic but it's actually Transit Fares spelled backwards this is how i came up with it i was sitting in a bus and i saw the words transit and fares but backwards and i said that could be a cool band name for www.amiright.com. | hamp | ||
| Seraphs | It is the six-winged gaurdian of the throne of God. What could be cooler? | Foster | ||
| serenity | i was looking through the dictionary for my english homework, and i just found the word serenity. it has been my favourite word ever since, and i just think that it would sound totally wicked as a name for a band. By the way, it means tranquillity!!! | sandie | ||
| Serpent Son | its a line in "thank you for the venom" by my chemical romance. they rock! | Amber | ||
| Server Donations | We had a volunteer thing for Masquers Club and everyone else had fancy tip jars for themselves...well no one had thought of us while buying these jars so we got stuck with a coffee can. With that can we made a label. We got masking tape and wrote "Server Donations" because we were serving food. We thought it sounded like it would've been one of the local bands in our area. Note: Devolution is almost a band name. I think it's way too close to De-evolution to be considerent original. Devo was the ultimate band... | Dana | ||
| Sesame Street Prostitutes | Can you imagine Big Bird or Oscar being arrested for soliciting with hookers? I can, and so can these oversexed 'pervs'. | kid | ||
| Seven Against Thebes | I was sitting on the beach reading Dante's Inferno, and there was some line about 'the seven against Thebes', who were currently residing in one of the levels of Hell. It was revealed in the footnotes that this referred to seven kings of yore who waged war against the ancient city of Thebes. That phrase has really stuck with me; even if there were only four or five members in the band, I think this would be a good name for a rock group that reads the classics...it has a slightly mysterious yet rebellious ring to it. | Jimmy's Dreamgirl | ||
| Seven Against Thebes | A spirit name phosphorescence descended upon me in my sleep and gave me the idea. | Bob Dyllan | ||
| Seven Against Thebes | I was reading Dante's Inferno on the beach and I came to a section that referred to seven ancient kings being punished for their sins. Thoroughly mystified, I checked the footnotes in the back and it referenced a brief war of seven kings against the ancient city of Thebes. It sounded so cool that I couldn't let it go and whenever I'm in one of those "If you had a band, what would you name it?" conversations, I can't resist adding this one. | Alicia | ||
| Seven Ate Nine | My friend made a joke....Why was six afraid of seven? Because seven 8 nine. I just changed the number 8 into "ate". [Ed.'s note: It was on a car commercial.] | Matt | ||
| Seven Car Pile-Up | If you have seen the show Scrubs, you will know that is the origin of this name. It is cool. | Michael | ||
| Seven Pillars of Wisdom's House | Like how jars of clay got their name. The verse is taken from Proverbs 9:1. I was looking for something in the bible, since that's what jar's did anyway. And it sounds hopelessly cool might I add! For short, just 7Pillars. | jonnio | ||
| Seven Sins | It first came to mind because there are seven of us in the band and I wanted to use the word sin. | Jake | ||
| Seven Story Kids | It is cool because my friends and I were talking and someone just said. They had seven stories, and so we call our new club "The Seven Story Kids". | theodore | ||
| Seven Story Ruin | In ancient Rome their were many ruins, so we thought of seven story ruin. | jhosuknow | ||
| Seven Story World | Cuse there 7 parts to life, Baby, kid, teen, young adult, mid-adult, old, and then really old, liek the old when i cant control yuor S*** and u need OOPHS I CRAPED MY PANTS | the atticus bird | ||
| Seventh Rock | I think it would be funny because well, since Earth is spoken as the third rock from the sun, I was thinking of what Uranus would be, since, Uranus is just funny. It's the seventh rock from the sun and that's why my band is named after Uranus. | Lindsey | ||
| Severed Blender Hands | It's what would happen if you put your hand in a blender... | JR | ||
| Severed Limb | I lost my arm in a steel cutting machine, and the doctor said my limb was severed and it'll never be able to be replaced. I would type more but i only have one f***ing hand. | Chris Walker | ||
| The Sewer Sharks | And you thought alligators down there was scary. (and yes, I did base this on the crappy Sega CD FMV game.) | something clever | ||
| Sewing Machine | Misread Candi's "Sweet Medicine" submission and thought it said "Sewing Machine". | K.Y.L.E | ||
| Sex Gang Children | From a William S Burroughs book. Also like Alien Sex Fiend and My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult | MK | ||
| Sex In The Dust | From the subliiminal message in The Lion King, when Simba falls onto the rock and the dust flies forming the word 'sex'. | shiver | ||
| Sex Offenders On Broadway | A scary thought: sex offenders living near the Great White Way. (Not to glorify sex offenders, but...) | bad | ||
| The Sex Toys | It came from my pun of the 1975 Aerosmith album title, "Toys In The Attic." I thought such a band might have an album titled "Sex Toys In The Attic." | Renard | ||
| Sex with A Minor | Not underage sex. Long A, not short A. A Minor -- as in the guitar chord. "Our music is so good, it's like sex with A minor." Probably couldn't get it printed, but your acronym could be SWAM. Or you could have the Aminor, with "minor" superscript. Your first album could be called "Statutory." | AJM | ||
| Sexblind | Have you ever looked at someone and just couldn't figure out their gender? Then you suffered from sexblindness... I think their first hit will be "Androgynous". | Markus | ||
| Sexchange | Okay me and my friend were bored thinking good band names and then my friend shouts: sexchange!!! I almost had an heartfailure for that and then I was like hey, that's cool! | Kanjoz | ||
| Sexual Harrassment Panda | If you have a good taste in South Park episodes, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. | =~~`--= | ||
| Sexually Frustrated Pandas | I was thinking of it in my Science class, we were doin about Pandas and other animals and i thougth it sounded funny | Jay to the EmmC | ||
| Sexy Clownz For Adult Parties | Me and my friends were thinking up band names and it just stuck in my head. What a picture! Sexyclownz......... | Matt Stevenson | ||
| The Sezzy Toothbrushes | my friend is obsessed w/ his toothbrush...he loves it...he says it is sezzy...just fooling around with my band when i thought of this... | Runes | ||
| Shabobkins | I was sitting in my computers class one day when I did a stupid typo which stated, "I live in Nebrakqak," and then I started laughing. Then, one day in my gym class I tought of the name "Shabobkins," don't ask me how! | Danny :-) | ||
| The Shades | One day me and my dad were in his car and he pulled over to put on his sunglasses, and he said my future's so bright I gotta wear shades, and I thought that shades was a really cool word | Neil Harris | ||
| Shades Of Black | It's not possible to get a SHADE of BLACK. Black is just one colour...there's no such thing as dark black and light black is grey. So it's pretty cool. | Jay | ||
| Shades of Green | I was thinking of that song that goes, "I see shades of blue, white flowers too, and I think to myself what a wonderful life". Not my kind of music, but Shades of Green sounds like a pretty cool Punk name, I guess. | Thorne Bush | ||
| Shadow Dragons | Well, you see, dragons are immortal. So I thought that maybe the band using this name would be "immortal". And when I saw the name in "Dragonlance", it was perfect. | Khellendros | ||
| Shadow of Fate | My friends and I were sitting around drunk recording ourselves and blurted out Shadow of Fate. While listening to the recording I said that Shadow of Fate would make a good band name. | Bass Playa | ||
| Shadow Rider | A white guy that does black chicks, plain and simple. Also reminds me of those hooded horsemen from 'Lord of the Rings'. | Zak Attak | ||
| Shadow Squad | It's a name given to a group of elite soldiers, whose primary function in the U. S ARMY are RECON missions. | DJ Erratic | ||
| Shadow Thief | Pretty cool if u ask me. I came up with it when I sneaked up behind my friend and scared the crap out of her. She then said, "Jesus! You tip toe so quetly You could have stolen my Shadow!" It kinda stuck with me after that. | Mc_Kourpo | ||
| Shadows in the Night (SIN) | i think its kool cuz it doesnt make too much sense. we made it cuz we wanted an abbreviation and it was SID (shadows in the dark) then we thought SIN was better so i thought of words that start with n like night and now thats wut we're called. yup we're real and we're from essex,ontario,canada | BKnight | ||
| Shag Rock | I was looking at this map of the Americas and I noticed this island off the coast of Argentina that is U.K. territory called Shag Rock and I thought, "That'd be a tight name for a rock band!!!" | Joey Ramone | ||
| Shag The Vicar | It's a common yet crude idiom curse from down about the lowlands. But it surely rings good for a band's name. | Gary Gray | ||
| The Shaguettes | Very Austin Powers! | Dominic | ||
| Shake Well | My friends and I were thinking of a cool name. Since I told them that I saw a commercial which consists of a make-up band which was called as, "Tear Here", then we decided to use Shake Well!! | yahoo | ||
| Shake Well | Read the chocolate milk panel. | beebop | ||
| Shake Your Spear At Shakespeare | I was on the funny lyrics page. I went to System of a Down. This was the first one I saw. Death metal band. | phamilto | ||
| Shaken Not Stirred | Stylish, Bondish, for a band that might sound like Roxy Music or something. | Jehannes | ||
| Shaker Revival | The Shakers were a religious group that could be compared to the Amish or the Mennonites. Except, they weren't allowed to have sex, even if they were married. Because of this, they pretty much died off in the early 1900's. They were known for two things: being kick a** carpenters, and performing bizzare "shaking rituals" to music (hence how they got their name). By this point, Shaker Revival should be pretty self explanitory. Shake to music, revival as in the rebirth of the religion, or revival as in the celebration sermons that are thrown. Everything adds up to an awesome band name. It's already taken though... | AphexTriplet | ||
| Shakespearian Cattle Prod | Well, if there can be a "Culture Club", why can't there be a "Shakespearian Cattle Prod" ?? | Johnny D | ||
| Shakesphere In Hell | cuz its shakespeare plays and sonets put 2 deathe metal music..... they are from new orleans | shelly | ||
| Shallow Consolment | Sitting around thinking of band names. Heard console then heard shallow. Then BAM! | Swarm | ||
| Shan't! | The British say funny things. | phamilto | ||
| Shanghai Roundeye | it rhymes, but its contradictory...asian, but "roundeye" not asian. | Mike Lydic | ||
| Shank and the Flash Fried Cattle | We need a pro-beef band. | Dark One | ||
| The Shape | A cool jam band name, what more can I say? It just came into my mind. | Juice | ||
| The Shape Sisters | We were in a pub and my mum tried to say 'Shapeshifters' (they are a pop group) but said 'Shapesisters' by mistake. | sonikal | ||
| Sharkspree | On fark.com, there was an article, and they said "don't know who Sharkspree is" meaning "they don't know who Shakespeare is". I thought that would be hilarious. | Lucy | ||
| Sharkwave | This is cool because I wanted a band name thatincluded a shark, a long story, and my mate thought of Shockwave so after thoinking hard i fused them to come u with sharkwave. | Jay Mike | ||
| Shatter Proof | I think it's cool because it is like shatter proof glass. It's got a heavy metal sound to it. | Kevin | ||
| Shattered | I found the word out when I was playing hockey and broke my window. I never heard of a band with this title. And I thought that the word 'shattered' also relies on...maybe somebody's feelings or attitude. | shane | ||
| Shattered Bliss | Just think it sounds cool | Chris | ||
| Shattered Glass Rose | Saw Cowboy Bebop's fifth session "Ballad of Fallen Angels", and came up with the name. | Darius Cloud | ||
| Shattered Iris | This is actually the name of the group of amateur artists that practice in my garage. I am the one that came up with this name, and, being the bassist, I happen to like it, even though it's rather bland, IMHO. It sounds painful, doesn't it? It doesn't exactly match the genre we play, as it would sound better for a band that plays a little heavier music (perhaps something like Fuel?). Anyway, I know this is supposed to be for made-up names only, but I think it's cool. Besides, other people have done this sort of thing! :) | Vicroc4 | ||
| Shatterglass | The name sounds awesome, and it is the name of a book by Tamora Pierce. My friends and I are starting a band and I suggested Shatterglass. We still don't have a name, but we think we might use it. | Skate4Life | ||
| Shaved Chizzle | Someone IMed me one time and their screenname was "Shaved Chizzle" and i thought it was funny yet immature. | Kelsey | ||
| The Shawl Family | I was at a geneology class, and the teacher mentioned she was an ancestor of family that didn't exist anymore, called the Shaul family. Naturally, I thought she said "Shawl", which is a poncho/sweater worn by elderly women. | band name | ||
| Shazzam | I just started saying it one day... like a magical person or something. I tried to make a scary man disappear and it didnt work, so maybe band name is its destiny. | Sarah | ||
| She Likes Cloth | There's this online cartoon called Teen Girl Squad, and it's supposed to be a spoof of a bunch of girls hanging out and "looking so good!" and in one of the episodes, one of the characters goes up to some guys who are saying, "Band name. Band name." so she says to them, "Uh, hi. I like music. And, um, cloth." So I thought, that would be a good band name! She Likes Cloth! | Mitch | ||
| Shecky's Tool Room | The guy who is in charge of the tool room where I work is nicknamed "Shecky." | unstable bob | ||
| ShellShocked | Well, i was watching Airplane and noticed the awesoely cool name shellshock at the hospital flashback. Shellshock is when people freak out after being in the war. | jarad | ||
| Shennanigans | I got the name from grade 7. This guy started calling me Shennaigans. Shennanigans means funny and silly and that represents me and my band members. | Sheena | ||
| The Sherwood Gypsies | I actually once thought this was a real group. That's from hearing a radio DJ announce what I thought was "That was Sherwood Gypsies' 'Tramps And Thieves'." What he must have really been saying was "That was Cher with ' Gypsies Tramps And Thieves'." | Angelica Drake | ||
| Shift | I just was just staring at the key board and thought it would be different. | jess | ||
| Shifted During Flight | As in, "Objects may have shifted during flight". It's for a band who's a little off. | Adam | ||
| The Shifty McNuggets | Trademarks be damned I just like this word combination. Alternate Name: Ronald McDonald and the Shifty McNuggets | Nerrticus | ||
| Shine Or Shade | It's cool cause of the negative and positive in one title. I heard it in a poem, and thought that would be cool band name with mixed members from the dark side and the positive side. | nick | ||
| Shinola | As in "you don't know S*** from Shinola!" | mike lydic | ||
| Shiny Cows | I was just thinking about things that were shiny, and I was also eating a hamburger, then WHAM! Shiny Cows popped in my head. Made me laugh SO hard. Hehehe, anyways, who has EVER seen a shiny cow, huh? Really, its like, " Here's some windex for your Mooer." Hehehehe. That's all. | Elizabeth | ||
| Shiny Eyelashes | I though of this one when I looked at this one chick who had so much mascara and eyeshadow on that it looked like her eyelashes were shiny. not to mention she looked like she had gotten run over by a truck. but that's not the point. it's a cool chick/metal group name | punkstress | ||
| The Shiny Mustards | We were talking about the luster of minerals in science and we had to identify the luster of sulfur; we said 'shiny, mustard' | meggo | ||
| The Shiny Streak | This name is like an oxymoron. Streaks are not shiny, so it sound cool. | onopizzileizzle | ||
| Ship High In Transit | "Ever wonder where the word "sh*t" comes from? Well, here it is. Certain types of manure used to be transported (as everything was back in the 1800's) by ship. Well, in dry form it weighs a lot less, but once water (at sea) hits it, it not only became heavier, but the process of fermentation begins again, with the byproduct being methane gas - and as the stuff was stored below deck in bundles you can see what could (and did) happen. Methane began to build up below deck and the first time someone came below at night with a lantern. BOOOOM! Several ships were destroyed in this manner before it was discovered what was happening. After that the bundles of manure where always stamped with the term "S.H.I.T." on them which meant to the sailors to "Ship High In Transit". In other words, high enough off the lower deck so that any water that came into the hold would not touch this volatile cargo and start the production of methane." I don't know how true this is, but nevertheless it would still make a cool name for a band IMO. | Mike | ||
| Shiroi Kaze | This is the name of a band in my comic. I was watching Gravitation and in the opening theme for the show they say shiroi kaze, which means white wind. I think names in Japanese are kewl | Tenshi | ||
| Shirt, Shoes, & Service | If anyone wnts to boo this band with style, they can go "No shirt, no shoes, no service!" | Tejayes | ||
| Shmeckaldorff | I think this name just spells like rainbow sherbet ice cream. | shane | ||
| Shmorvenhoffen | I just came up with it. I was thinking of a password for something online and it couldn't be based on a word in the dictionary. So I thought, "Why not 'Shmorvenhoffen'?" | Cecilia | ||
| Shnoobs | I don't know why i like this. It's a sound effect that i use a lot. Sounds better if you say it as if you're falling off a cliff. | Charlie's Angel | ||
| Shock and Awe | The code name for the intimidation tactics the USA employs against terrorists in Afghanistan and Iraq. After it was first used in the media, it has achieved widespread recognition. Since a lot of bands enjoy naming themselves after famous and controversial things, I'd say "Shock and Awe" is right up their alley. | CC |
