Names -> Cool Band Names -> S, Page 7
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: | ||
| Souldrop | It's the name of a small town somewhere in the Anglian region of England - I spotted it on a road sign and thought it was more suited to a TLC-type group than a town... there're some pretty interesting town/city names out there but none so far that I think are more suited to a band than this one | miss bad example | ||
| Soulever | Soulever means "to lift or peel back" in Spanish. I read it on the label on a pack of tissues encased in plastic wrapping. And the rest was history. | Tack | ||
| SoulJahs | Well, I got the name from P.O.D. It's a word they use a lot and I thought that it would be a cool name for a band. Now my band uses it. They spelling is cool because it catches your eye, and it helps people remember the name. | Tyler | ||
| Sound Of Floss | It came about when my friend was giving out dental floss and we were debating what sound floss would make. 'The sound of floss'! | gem | ||
| The Sound of the Baskervilles | Just sounds cool. [Ed. note: Sherlock Holmes would've loved it.] | ... | ||
| Sound Zypher | it just popped into my head | Gman | ||
| Sour Ice | I have these sour Ice Breaker things. So I thought that Sour Ice would be a cool band name, I guess. | Me | ||
| Sour Love | Because I was on a date and eating a sour candy as soon as my girl friend dumped me! | Robert< Robert Bob The 5th | ||
| South of Heaven | I actually got this out of a Guitar World magazine a couple of months ago. It was an article lesson with Kerry King. I thought it sounded cool, so I added it to my list of potential band names, and now its the name of my band. | Richard | ||
| The Southern Avenger(s) | This name is NOT for YANKEES! In my hometown, we have this awesome radio station and everyday, The Southern Avenger comes and does his controversial commentaries on the radio. He is so awesome and he believes that the turnout of the Civil War was unfair (GO REBELS!). | Ezra | ||
| Soviet Onions | We're doing Soviet Russia in History. My history teacher looks like an onion. Therefore, one equals three. | Tammy the Boy | ||
| Space Bee | It's a Futurama reference...would be good for a band full of obsessive Futurama fans. Like me. | Shippy Mandy | ||
| Space Burrito | I was playing a game and my friend said this was what I was ranked. | IHaveNoBrain | ||
| Space Fart | I misread 'Death of the Hillbilly Stickmen by a Sea Fart'. I thought it was 'Space Fart'. So, thusly, Space Fart! | IHaveNoBrain | ||
| Space Tigers | I was watching Space Cadets and thinking about my IT project. Also reminds me of Arctic Monkeys. | Livvy | ||
| Space Toaster | I just think toasters are cool, and that like on button moon, u can imagine kictchen things being space things...hehe | KT | ||
| Space. Munkey. Mafia. | I was listening to my huge collection of Billy Joel CD's. Suddenly I STARTED paying attention when We Didn't Start The Fire came on. In the lyrics you can hear Space Monkey and Mafia strung together. I thought it would be cool for a Punk/Grunge band because they are allways jumping around like monkeys and you think theyd shoot off into outer-space or something.............. | Stoner Steve | ||
| Spacecataz | It's from Aqua Teen Hunger Force on the Cartoon Network. | Wade Shearer | ||
| Spack Vandy | Because its kinda like Van Halen or Pink Floyd, a weird random name. | Ivan Gagatko | ||
| Spackal | I'm British. When I heard this American word, it made me laugh because our word for it is mortar. It's just something that made me giggle. | Emily | ||
| The Spackle Buckets | One day I was just sitting in my garage thinking of band names. I saw my dad's spackle buckets. The name sounded cool. | Jacob Gillen | ||
| Spada-Licious | It is cool, because my teacher is named Mrs.Spada and she likes it. So if your cool, you can pick this name!!!!!!!!! | Luc | ||
| Spades of Blades | I think it would be a cool metal band name, that was the name of my band but we changed it. I got the idea from looking at a deck of cards at my friends house and he colects lots of sword, and I thought hat was such a cool name | Chris G. | ||
| Spades Of Blades | I think it would be a cool metal band name, that was the name of my band but we changed it. I got the idea from looking at a deck of cards at my friend's house. He collects lots of swords, and I thought that was such a cool name. | Chris G. | ||
| Spam Hamsters | This was a band name my roommate (Keppy) and I made up in college back in the mid-80s - it was for a punk band that never made it beyond the concept stage..... | Jeff W | ||
| Spam Spam Spam | It's from Monty Python. | IHaveNoBrain | ||
| Spamcakes | Yet another think my friend said, that just sounded funny/cool. (Spam is cool and so are cakes.) | Junior | ||
| Spanish Translations | I live in a border City close to Mexico, and it helps to be Mexican of course. People who visit and are not from my city, don't know Spanish and ask me to translate for them. They mainly want to know the bad (obscene) words in Spanish, they sound pretty cool. | Raquel | ||
| Spank Monkey | Is it an act of self abuse, or a whipping boy of the primate world? Either brings disturbing images, which is part of the appeal. It's purposefully vague. Okay, I just like the way it sounded when it lodged in my brain after I misunderstood what an inebriated buddy of mine was saying about a band while they were in full volume. | New Austinian | ||
| Spank Ur Inner Moppet | i just think it sounds kewl...............i heard it on buffy the vampire slayer when cordy and buffy were fighting..........it just kinda stuck in my head.............. | *Kenzie* | ||
| Spanking Gnu | A bad boy band of course . Ask any gnu what used to happen to them when they got out of line and sassed the momma! Thats' no bull! | badboybear | ||
| Spanking Penguins | I don't really know where this came from. It was like when you're eating peanut butter, and a chicken is a victim of a drive-by shooting. It just happens. | Ziggy | ||
| Spare Change | My dad always puts his 'spare change' on a table so that anyone can pick it up and we were talking about a good band name since me and my friend Colby have started a band. My dad looks over and is like 'Spare Change'. We're not using it but I figured someone else might want to. | Casey | ||
| Spare Change | Actually the name of my skate team. But sounds catchy, eh? We just thought it up and drew a picture of a bum with his hands out asking for change. | me | ||
| Spasms of Lucidity | This phrase was used by the "Fight Doctor" Ferdie Pacheco to describe then U.S. Olympic boxer Riddick Bowe's prowess in the ring during the '88 Seoul Olympics. It has stuck with me for years and I think is a GREAT band name. | BT | ||
| Spastic Contortions | Was at a dance watching some guy that really couldn't. They were making these (you guessed it) spastic contortions, and the name came to me. | Ernie W | ||
| Spastic Plastic | It'd be hilarious! And very catchy name. It can stick in your head for days | CrazyBandie | ||
| Spawn Of Earl | There is a hanging plant in my math classroom. A student named it Earl. One day, a piece fell off, and the teacher was distraught. The class said the plant was having babies, so therefore "Spawn of Earl." | C21 | ||
| Spazzy Prosthetic KNees | When you see people walking with fake legs they always wiggle a bit. SO therefore their fake knees are jumpy or spazzy. | Pigertaws | ||
| Spazzy Blonde Ingrates | I dont know why its cool. it just is. my mom called me an ingrate the other day and when i told my friend, she says i wasnt an ingrate just a spazzy blonde. Definately a punk rock chic band. | Pigertaws@hotmail.com | ||
| Speaker Bangers | I was trying to fix my speakers, while my brother was banging me in the head with his hand. | Eric | ||
| Spear Body | It just popped up in my head when I listened to Front 242's "Smear Body" .. I changed one letter and there it was. | bleurgh | ||
| Spear Britney | So you don't like Britney? Me neither. Try this for a metal band. | Kelly Jones (cough, cough) | ||
| Special Ed | My friends and I thought it would be a cool name because you could go up to people and say, "hey, I'm in Special Ed." Great conversation starter. | Aaron | ||
| Special Ed and the Ritalin Rangers | It's just funny in a politically incorrect twisted way. You just know somebody'd ask: Which one's Ed? | Troubadog | ||
| Special Guest | Since every band's opening act is referred to as their special guest, why not make them announce special guest Special Guest! (See my other entry, With.) | Frigmous | ||
| Special Guest Stars | This would look cool on a marquee. People would be curious to see who the guest stars are; only when they've paid and come inside would they realize that Special Guest Stars is the name of the band. | Sister Havana | ||
| Special Guests | Forever destined to be a support band.... but if we ever DID manage to headline anywhere, imagine how priceless those gig tickets would be!!!!! [Special Guests + Special Guests?!] | Shinkansen | ||
| Special Guests | When you look at your concert ticket, theres this band 'Special Guests' that seem to support everyone but never show up. Who are they!? US! | Danny McNeill | ||

| Speed Limit 55 | I passed the sign driving in my car and thought it would be good for a rock band. Although, if the band was really hard-core, it would be something like Speed Limit 95. | Kristen | ||
| Speed McQueen | Homage to the awesome Steve McQueen... but faster! | me | ||
| Speedlite | It's a flash camera attachment from Canon. It sounded pretty cool :] | Womzee | ||
| Sphere | Hey a 1 word band name that has little meaning, maybe good for a REM type band? | Alien7 | ||
| Sphinctal Release | While 'sphinctal' isn't a real word, it sounds like it means 'related to the sphincter'. Add in 'release' and you've got yourself a technical name for all that escapes the anus, aka a nice ironic name for a good band which isn't s***. | Bob | ||
| Sphincter Boy | It's from Wayne's World. I think that's how you spell it. | stew | ||
| Sphinxter | Combine Ancient History with Biology! | Bold Yelper | ||
| Spiced Ham | I think it's cool if your band is called "Spiced Ham". Spiced Ham has a flavor of rock. I think. | Adi | ||
| Spicy Caca In A Maraca | It came to me during one of my personal stream of consciousness writing exercises. I think it works because "caca" and "maraca" are rhyming Spanish words. | Renard | ||
| Spicy Chicken | I was walking through Best Buy and I saw a CD that had a chicken on the front and the band was called "The Spices". So I decided on "Spicy Chicken". I don't know why I thought of it. It just sounds cool. | 9pm News Producer | ||
| Spiders And Insides | I was watching the video to "I Miss You" by Blink 182. When it got to (the part where they sing "spiders and insides"), I came up with it! I think it's kinda funny as well. | Roz | ||
| Spiked Moles | My friend was telling me that she had to kill the moles in her yard with spikes and then I said "Spiked Moles!" and then we decided that it would be a good band name. | olivia | ||
| Spikenard | According to John's Gospel, this is what Mary anointed Jesus' feet with when he resurrected himself. Aah, the joys of Religious Studies A Level! Ho ho hee hee. | Amy | ||
| Spilt Wine | My wine glass got tipped over and I got upset, after all, what a tragic waste of alcohol =P And I thought about that saying 'Don't cry over spilt milk.' And I thought... hey... =) | Jim Town | ||
| Spinal Cracker | Another ingenious lyrics from The Beatles' classic "Come Together", which could also give birth to groups like "Walrus Gumboot", "Mojo Filter", "Holy Rollers", "Toejam Football", "Ono SideCar" and "Shooting Coca-Cola", but Spinal Cracker is the best. | beegles | ||
| Spineless | Almost sounds like a Grunge type of band. Rock on. | not-so-superman | ||
| Spiraling Decay | I think this is an awesome oppurtunity for a punk or grunge band for a name. I came up with it when i was feeling down and it just popped up in my big mexican head. | Thundakatz from ohio | ||

| Splitline Cartridge | I saw it on a package of weedwacker string. I guess that is what kind of cartridge it is. But yeah, it's a pretty cool name for a band. So my friend and i keep making logos and things using that name. | Phoenix | ||
| Splitserz | This band name is so cool because it has the term Split in it...like when a guy and girl break up...and serz is just an awesome addon to the name!! I think that all bands should have awesome names like this! It's a good name for a punk-rock band. | the guy next-door.... | ||

| The Spoken For | i was english class and the teacher said something and this kid said "Speak for yourself!" and i said "yea im already spoken for." | n8 | ||

| Spoken Reason | Fetus Cape | |||
| Spontaneously Naked | It has happened to me before....I lie to you not....and what is music?
