Names -> Cool Band Names -> T, Page 1
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 T are split into multiple pages: 1 2 3 4 5
Name | Origin | Submitted by: | ||
| T. B. A. | To be announced. It's a great name! "T. B. A. is having a concert today." Genius! | Jeff Mig | ||
| T.M.I. | I can't believe I'm the first person to think of this. (For you cave-dwellers, this is a common acronym for Too Much Information). | Ken Blackman | ||
| T.O.U.C.H. | THE ORGASM YOU CAN HAVE. | RANA | ||
| T3mptress | i was surfing the web for a band name and i saw on a sight it was in a phrase, and i kinda liked it. so i changed the e to a 3 to make it look different. i dont know tho | Inoaku | ||
| T4 Hotties | I had a pop magazine called tvhits and at the bottom it had the name of popstars. In among it was T4 Hotties (T4 is a TV programme). And I thought that T4 Hotties sounded a good name for a pop group, as it was in among names of popstars. | Tony | ||
| The Tabloid Generation | It's actually a Goo Goo Dolls lyric, but ever since I heard it, I always thought it was an awesome idea for a band name. I mean think about it... | Cate | ||
| Tabula Rasta | Tabula Rasa means clean slate (basically starting over). Thus, the name Tabula RASTA would be perfect for some new Reggae band. | Nick Prol | ||
| The Tactical One Handers | This is my current band name. I was reading a knife ad and it said "The Tactical One Hander". i thought it was witty and provocative enough to be the name of our post-grunge, punk band. | Eric Thomas | ||
| Tae-Kwon-Dodo | Um, we were watching Ice Age, and I do Tae-Kwon-Do, so some kid made a stupid remark, which I actually think is kind of funny now. | Douglas Bucksworth aka D.B. | ||
| Tai Mai Shu | Well I dunno I was on habbohotel.com one day and this guy had this name ~TaiMaiShu~ and I asked him what it meant and hes like "Tie My Shoe"...Jeez I didn't even notice that when I came up to him.

| Tainted Beef | My brother got a hamburger from this restaurant and it was still bleeding, so we came up with this name. | black star | ||
| Take The Payne | Quite cool because pain is spelt differently. I found this name while I was playing "Max Payne" on my xBox and suddenly this came to my head. | Fantasy | ||
| Taken | My cousin and I were looking at band names on the Internet, and they were all taken. So he suggested 'Taken'. | Shaefer | ||
| Taken Property | I stole someone's lunchbox; and then I thought I took someone's property. Then I thought that would be a cool band name "Taken Property". | susan sky | ||
| Taking Back Pentacle | Even though it sounds like Taking Back Sunday, it's cool because it's about winning back something that was ruined by what people think. Like a reputation or the ancient sign of paganism. | Sarle | ||
| Taking Back Subway | it came from the band name taking back sunday, and i like subway, except when they put to much mayo on the sub then i take it back | thursday | ||
| The Talentless Hacks | This is the name of my band. I just sort of gathered together a bunch of amateur musicians, and we started to jam a bit. We sounded completely awful, so I said that we sounded like a bunch of talentless hacks. We practised and got better, but the name sticks. | Fish | ||
| The Talking Mimes | Well, I was walking down the street one day and noticed a black and white fabric. So I picked it up and thought of a mimes shirt. And then I realized mimes don't talk. | Jesus Melendez (Djfatfoo) | ||
| Talking Out Your Butt | What my Dad says most politicians do. | IHaveNoBrain | ||
| Talkover | First thing I saw when I just looked to the right. | DarkJon64 | ||
| The Tallahassee Tigers | I like it because it's alliterative. And I just think cat names are cool. I don't know what kind of music they'd play though. But I think there should be a band with the word tigers in it so I just put it together with the first U.S. city that I thought of that started with T. Tallahassee would obviously be the band's hometown. | Edward | ||
| Tallywackers | Me and my friends were walking down a road near some old pubs, and we saw a homeless man. On impulse, I took out a 1p coin and said to him "Now my man, would you juggle for a shiny penny?" Upon which he called me a tally wacker. Whatever that is | Ringo Starr | ||
| Tallywhackers | I have no idea what this word means or where it came from. I just think it sounds cool | IHaveNoBrain | ||

| Tantric Grannies | Their album: "Under The Quilt" Their single: "Shrivled Fingers" | Meli | ||
| Tanya Rose & The Buffalo Chip Kickers | What better name for a hillbilly band? We took a picture of a buffalo head nickel, changed a back leg to a kicking position with a meadow muffin (manure) flying off the buffalo's hoof and the band's name at the top of the nickel. That's our band logo. My husband thought of the name. | Tanya Rose | ||
| Tapeworm | It is both unpleasant and a reference to recoding music all in one name. That is perfect for rock and roll. | Bobby Guitar | ||
| Tarantula Eats The Mushroom | During biology class, teacher showed us a tarantula and asked my mate, what does a tarantula eat? My friend, not knowing the answer, went, 'Eeeeeeeeee... Tarantula... eaatsssssssss...' and someone from the back of the class went 'the mushroom!'. | Lex | ||
| Tarantula Joy Hypnosis | I used my initials and made a name for our band which doesn't have a lead guitar or drummer. | Travis | ||
| Tarnished Halos (or Haloes, if you prefer) | I thought of it in connection with Hell's Angels, and it kind of spiraled out from there. I'm picturing an angry-girl-group type thing -- think of The Supremes getting the spotlight back from Diana Ross ... | Spoon | ||
| The Taste Buds | Kinda rolls off your tongue, doesn't it? | old | ||
| Tastes Like Chicken | I was eating a vegetarian chicken sandwich that surprisingly tasted like chicken. | Larry Mondello | ||
| Tastickles | If u want ur band to have taste, play on the word testicle. | X | ||

| Tasting the fallen | Come on, we've all tasted somthing sweet or bitter, but no one but the fallen knows what this tastes like! | India | ||
| Tattooed Angels | I was sat there one day and thought of getting a tribal tattoo, or an angel with a tribal on her back. | Albie | ||
| The Tavadors | Met a guy with the surname Tavador at a festival over the summer and thought it sounded kind of cool. | Jojo | ||
| Tayla Loves Dave | this name comes from my favorite website, www.davegrohl'sbestkeptsecret.com. It is run by a crazy Canadian lady who swears up and down that she's Dave Grohl's mistress. That's pretty cool in my book. | Nyla | ||
| TBA | Stands for: To Be Announced. It justs sounds like a cool name too. | The Alex Basso | ||
| TDC | It was our old name it stands for Transparent Dangling Carrots which was in Alanis morrisette's Thank you and it was the first thing that came into my head when she said think of a name for our band | Pudding | ||
| Tea Party At Noon | Jenn bought Samu a teaset for her birthday one year. It made us think about a tea party at noon. The time that it's considered okay to start drinking. | Jenn and Samu | ||
| Tea, Earl Grey, Hot | What Jean-Luc Picard's band would be called, if he had one. [Ed.'s note: I believe hot Earl Grey tea is what the Captain orders on the Starship Enterprise?] | Annette Gaskins | ||
| Teacher's Pet | I am a big AC/DC fan, and I was looking at Angus in a school boy outfit the other day. This name hit me as a kind of bad school boy hard rock punk name. | Jordan Squires | ||
| Teachers That Need Ritilin | My friends and I (who are all teachers) were at a teacher's conference and acting really off the wall. Someone we knew saw us and said, "You guys should be on Ritilin!" (One of the big controversies in education is the use of the drug Ritilin for children who have ADHD, Attention Deficit - Hyperactivity Disorder.) So I thought it would be wonderfully ironic to have a band made up of teachers who need Ritilin because they and not necessarily their kids are off the wall too! | Fred | ||
| Teacup Airplane Takeover! | My friend said it for some unknown reason and I thought it would be a cool band name | umm | ||
| Tears Of A Tree | God died on a cross which is made out of wood which is from a tree. The tears kinda represent his blood or his own tears...plus it sounds cool | David | ||
| Tears of Blood | Words could also be rearranged as Crying Blood etc. I got it from a picture on the net of a little girl crying tears of blood. Sounds depressing but i like it. | Missy | ||
| Tears of the Damned | I was listening to the Queen of the Damned soundtrack and thinking about depressing, gothic-type stuff. Would make a good name for a death metal or goth metal band, I think. | OnixxFilth | ||
| The Teats | c'mon, how stupidly unoriginal would "The Teats' be-- you could have a ginat dancing boob like Iron Maiden's Eddie! | Colin | ||
| Technical Ecstasy | It's one of Black Sabbath's album names, but not an actual band name. It sounds cool as Hell. | Duston | ||
| Technicolor Scream | Slang for vomiting. | Donny | ||
| Ted Braun | It's a character from a German show called "Loriot". The guy is just real chilled and layed back, so we (my band and I) named us after him :P | max | ||
| Teddybear Overflow | My ex girl frends bed had too many teddy bears and no room 4 me! | Dave W | ||
| Teenage Golf Balls | My boss is an avid golf fan with teenage children. She had mentioned that none of the balls she putted ever went in the hole. She called them "Teenage Golf Balls" because they never did what she wanted them to, just like a teenager. | boss | ||
| Teenage Hearts are Unisex | Somebody said this about the emo bands and how girls like the music when emo is sort-of a "boys-club only." And its true. Teenagers feelings are unisex. | Chokex | ||
| Teenage Hormones | I just figured that most of the people on this site are hormonal teenagers so get what it's like to be a hormonal teenager whereas parents don't. so it would be for non-adults, and would drive parents crazy because of the songs you could come out with. | Aimee | ||
| Teenage Immaculate Romance | Isn't it pretty? It describes me and my friends' attitude toward romance. We're teenagers, we're "immaculate" (pure), but we still like boys! It just sort of popped into my head one day. | Maggie | ||
| Teenage Roadkill | Me and my dad were in driving to the mall and these guys were balancing on a high snowbank on the side of the highway. My dad said "If these guys aren't careful they're gonna end up being teenage roadkill." I think it's a cool name for a band or a song by a punk/ corporate rock group. | ~*~Rebecca M~*~ | ||
| Teenage Wasteland | Its from "The Who" song, "Baba O'reily." I think its a really cool song....especially when you hear "....It's only teenage wasteland," at the end | Obvious Reasons | ||
| Teewinot | It's the name of a mountain... it just sounds kind of like a folk band or something. | Mikey | ||
| Teflon Surprise | This is just the weirdest word combo ever without being over the top and senseless. It makes me think of "tuna surprise"...gross. | Rachel | ||
| Teic 2 | It's pronunced like Take 2 but it stands for (The End Is Coming too soon) | Rob | ||
| Teletone | When I think of a telephone, I always wander into the word "tone". So I combined these two words to make Teletone. | Will | ||
| Teletubbies in Afghanistan | I find this hillarious because when I was watching the news, they took a call from a hippe dude about wut to do with Al Quida, and he said to get planes to spray sleep powder (cant remember the chemical name)on the terroriest and then send our solidiers in dressed in telebtubbie suits. Its funny when u think about it! First Hit Single : Spraying the Gass First Album : Eho! | Desolate Messiah | ||
| The Televangelust | You would get it if you knew what a televangelist was. | Stiv Bators | ||
| Temeka's Clobes | When I was 13, my friend Temeka had some shoes that were the brand "globe". And part of the "g" was scratched off one of her shoes, hence it said "clobe". | Alice | ||
| The Templar Agents | a friend and I were talking about history and RPG. Specificly about his Templar Agents and the historical value of that. I was thinking "dude, thats a great progressive rock band name. it has historical value, and weird at the same time." | the lady of prog | ||
| Temporary Immortality | This came from a very strange conversation with a friend, on boring ways to achieve immortality. Besides, it's got that cool oxymoron vibe to it. | subject to change | ||
| Tempral Warfare | Just think about it with me for a sec. Tempral as in time, warfare as in, well, if you dont know thats sad. It would be the most exciting war ever! people hiding in different eras and staging battles there :) | Cpt. Neeb | ||
| Ten Cents A Screw | The punchline to a joke I heard in grade 4, but never understood until a few years ago when I was thinking about it. | Left of Centre | ||
| Ten Foot Midget | When I was in 9th grade, my English teacher told us to think of an oxymoron, and that's what I thought of. | Liz | ||
| Ten Inch ToeNails | Its cool because its a step up from Nine Inch Nails. We didn't really think about it. It just popped up out of nowhere. And in short form it says (TIT) Tee He He. | Kyco | ||
| Ten Men Like Clouseau | "Give me ten men like Clouseau and I could destroy the world" is the quote this comes from. | Alan the Ottoman | ||
| Ten PM Stocker | It's cool sounding. It was also a name Linkin Park was considering at one time before becoming famous. They got it because they were recording on a street called Stocker Street and their neighbors would tell them to shut up around ten P.M. Still, it's cool and unused. | Bob | ||
| Ten-Four and the Good Buddies | The origin is 1970's CB Jargon. I heard that CB radios were now popular amongs cruising gay guys, so there's kind of a double entendre there as well. Figured this would be a good name for a Redneck/New Country version of the Village People that would have a truck driver, a farmer, a NASCAR driver, a car mechanic and a cowboy. | Jonny Quest | ||
| Ten-O-Six | It's the name of this deep pore cleanser I use. I thought it might be kinda cool to name a band. | .*.*.Krista.*.*. | ||
| Tender Bellyflesh | After tackling my husband and engaging in a knock-down, drag-out roughhousing match (and yeah, I know I am supposed to be too old to do that) I emerged triumphant. As I was bouncing around the house whooping because I won, he yelled, "You didn't win, you cheat! You stuck your claws in my tender belly flesh!" Struck me as the perfect name for an Emo-Punk band. P.S. I did TOO win. | Jen | ||
| The Tenth Project | I just thought this was a pretty sweet name | Ben Jammin | ||
| Tephra | "Tephra" is falling rock and lava from volcanos, and it just sounds cool, kind of like "Tesla". | Awood | ||
| Tequila Mockingbird | It's another tequila sunrise. Could be a name for a (melancholy) rock or country-western group. | Casper | ||
| Tequila Mockingbirds | Sort of a play on the movie "To Kill A Mockingbird". | hard69rock | ||
| Tequila Worm Saints | Named in honor of all those college students who spring break south of the border, and especially those who eat the worm in the tequila and experience a transcendental enlightenment then pass out and forget where they have been, or done the past 4 days and have to be treated for a case of the "crabs"! | badboybear | ||
| Terd | The name sounds like Korn or Creed but more punk. It would be really punk if the "e" was backwards. | CED | ||
| Teriyaki Donut | The name of a restaurant at the Del Amo Mall in Torrence, CA. | glitterglue | ||
| Terminal Velocity | its what happens when your reaching the fastest speed possible on a decent.....surely you'd like to be listening to some music before you hit the bottom.............. | Dhiv | ||
| Terminal Vertigo | its a cool band name in my opinion. Well for my old band that lasted about a week, our name was Terminal Conflict, then i was like Vertigo sounds cool so *BAM* Terminal Vertigo :) | JouteiMike | ||
| Terminally Lewd | My friend thought this name up; imagine a band so decadent that they are bound to die from sheer debauchery. Think Guns-n-Roses muliplied by G.G. Allin and you're in the right neighborhood. | Jason Reeher | ||
| Terminator Jesus | I theorize that if SkyNet really wanted to screw with humanity, what better way than to fake the second coming of Christ with a hopped up Terminator unit. Equipped with Stigmata blasters, flaming tongue sword, hands on defibrillator units and walk on water anti gravity feet it would convince most people. Hell, John Conner would walk right in to the embrace of the SaviorÂ…Target terminated. Heavy Metal, or Punk. | Xerxes | ||
| TerpsiCorey | Well in case u haven't guessed my name is Corey...i play keyboards and do vocals Terpsichore was the greek muse of song maybe this is also a way to say the MUSE ROCK | Corey in sussex | ||
| Terra Incognita | This was actually thought up by my friend, (the drummer) for our soon-to-be band. It sounds cool, its also got good significance, cause we are travelling through "unknown territory" | leadguitarist | ||
| Terror Dactylos | 'cause it's a pun on Pterodactylos, the flying dinosaur (the best known, anyway) - and it has "terror" in it, which makes it sound like an 80's heavy metal band. | Haverholm | ||
| Test of nerve | I have a big poster in my room, containing names for different names for roadsigns, and my and my m8s were trying to think of a good name for our band, so i looked at the poster and i said 'test of nerve'!!!! | Tom Harding | ||
| Test-tickle | WE DON'T KNOW HOW WE CAME UP WITH THAT ONE! DON'T ASK!If you don't get it, read it real slowly! | Josh | ||
| Testament Of Darkness | Always sounded like a cool band name to me and my buds. | rickydcheese | ||
| The Testicools | Aggressive....but cool. | Mike Lydic | ||
| Testicular Fortitude | My buddies and I were wondering how strong our (testicles) were, so we hit them with hammers...softly. But it did the trick. [Ed.'s note: Kids, please don't try this at home.] | Michael Cozywolfe |
