Names -> Cool Band Names -> S, Page 5

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

Skeptic Flesh One day, I was reading these band names; and I saw two bands next to each other. I fused them together and found "Skeptic Flesh". It has a black/death metal ring to it. aninepointstar_ainta_pentagram@hotmail.com
skeptic_self Everyone has doubts. Whether its their looks, own fears, or life in general. Thus you are skeptical...skeptic_self deafmute
Skeptik Slash I just like it, its pretty damn kewl if you ask me. It might be a name for people who hate sceptics and just wanna slash 'em Golden
Sketchy Trash Barrel This is what my friend's band almost called themselves. It was actually a phrase that we heard some random bum yelling out in the street. I think it's some kind of ghetto diss... "you sketchy trash barrel!!!" bill markson
Skinned rabbits and a mouth full of tea-bags... Actually, this is not really a new name, but it´s up for grabs as our band failed to produce anything, not even PUNK - which was all the rage at the time - I think Tim ( the leader ) still has 499 Demo Tapes in his garage ! muck otten

Sleeper/Stagger There are two seperate names there. First one I came up with cos I was sleeping and I had a nightmare and I woke up and thought "whoa, what a good name for a heavy metal band". I was gonna call my band that but they decided on Forbidden Angels. (another cool name but it's taken.) Second one was at Karate when our Sensei asked us to stagger our lines, which meant zig zag them. I thought first of zig zag, but Stagger is a better one. I wasn't sure which one to put down, so I decided to put them both down. Harry the Goldfish from Hell

Slipped On A Gherkin A friend of mine actually slipped on a gherkin outside a well known fast food place. After a few drinks, we made it our new catch phrase. We are now considering starting a dirty disco duo with said name ("Dirty Disco Duo" isn't a bad one either!). lindsay

Slutpuppyroofer@hotmail.com Would take some big dogs with serious huevos to pull this one off! Sounds like gigilo construction workers. Album titles??? "Roofin' without Panties", "On top of the world without tighties". Inspired by my favorite local roofers who like itty bitty teeny tiny cutoffs and nothing else (hey, it's hot up there)! Ought to start selling tickets as they never fail to draw a crowd. Cyn J

Small Town Stereotype Perfect for band made up of high school friends from a small town in the middle of Nowhere. Emily

Smothered Infant Well after listening to Dying Fetus, Cannibal Corpse, and various other death metal bands I decided that I had to come up with an outrageously disturbing name for my band in order to become somewhat popular. Smothered Infants is the kind of name that sticks with you... So that is what we might call our selves Bill
Snail Sans Shell It was a crossword puzzle clue. The answer was "slug"! Diane Stolfi
Snails On Steroids Me and my mates were sitting down thinking of band names and one of my mates thought of steroids, and I saw a snail...so...Snails + Steroids = Snails on Steroids. Jon Cartwright, Chris Raynes.
Snake and Cross My friends are all huge Fullmetal Alchemist fans, but we could never remember the name for the Flamel Snake symbol. We would call it the "Snake and Cross". After a while, I though "There's some weird hard rock band names, why not ours be called Snake and Cross?" It stuck. Trevor

Snifter It's a common thing between me and my friends. Snifter is another word for 'beer' and well, that explains why it's a common thing for us. mirza jill salcedo mijares
Sniper Men From Mars I can just imagine the film clip, space craft landing, then the occupants of this space craft getting picked off one by one by Snipers from Mars Scott
Snips Me and my friend were talking about what girls are made of (sugar, spice, and everything nice) and I said, "What are boys made of?" And she said, "Snips, snails, and puppy dog tails." Then I asked, "What are snips?" She started making a motion that a guy makes when he's lonely and has a Playboy. We started laughing and I thought that Snips would also be a cool band name. dead
Snoogans Well, this was an idea for a name. We sit in math class and think of made up words and we came up with "Snoogans". By the way, it didn't fly. Collin
Snooper I was once intrigued by a specific word that I had created over a conversation with my dearest friend, Walter Michaels Henry 2nd. He had informed me that he had exposed my drawer to his eyes. In conclusion, I held him accountable as a "Snooper". Therefore I conjecture that "Snoopers" would be an apporopriate "BAND NAME". I believe it will do fantasticly well with populartiy, and will gain power to minipulate many people to listen to "the band" Thank you for reading this and have a wonderfull band! ~ Delton Abreham McFee, The 3rd ~ Delton Abreham McFee, The 3rd
Snorkeling Goldfish It came to me in a dream. It was the title of a Calvin and Hobbes book in that dream. StGo

Snow In July I think this is a cool name because it leaves you there thinking "Snow in July?". I came up with this when I was at camp. I told this one girl that I had once shoved an eraser up my nose ( I really did!). She didn't believe me, so she said "I"ll believe that when it snows in July!" Stephanie
Snow White's Red Blood even though i love disney (and i'm not afraid to admit it) this name sounds pretty cool to me SHOCK!
