Names -> Stupid Band Names -> Latest Entries
These are the band names that we feel are just plain stupid. Bands pick the most absurd names, who wants to be known as a member of the "Butthole Surfers"? We only accept entries for this page that make fun of a band name. Just saying a band is lame (no matter how lame they might be) isn't a good reason for entry.
Latest Entries
The 20 most recent entries are listed below. There are 2356 Band Name Origin entries on the site.
Name | Description | Submitted by: | ||
| Lukas Graham | The name suggests a solo performer. But it's not. It's just a band. And the lead singer is not called Lukas Graham, but Lukas Forchhammer. (**Editor's note: PLEASE do not use smartquote apostrophes when submitting. Use neutral quotation marks only. One way to do this is to submit from a PC, not a phone.) | BrilliantJ8 | ||
| Planet P Project | There is no such planet as Planet P. And Pluto has been deplanetized so the band's name can't refer to it. | Rock Maninoff | ||
| We Came As Romans | As far as I'm aware none of the band members are actually Italian. | Jay | ||
| Sponge Cola | Is that a rejected name for a kind of soda? | Chris | ||
| Mallory Knox | The name suggests a solo performer, possibly a female, but this act is a band of all males. | Cassandra | ||
| Halifax | Halifax is a city in Nova Scotia, Canada, but this band is American. (However, two of the members played in a hockey tournament there in the early 2000s, which is supposedly why they gave their band this name. Still, I think it's silly for an American band to name itself after a major city from outside the U.S.) | K.N. Pepper | ||
| Scary Pool Party | This name sounds like it should be a group, but it's just one person (Alejandro Aranda). | Katt | ||
| Lizzo | Her real name doesn't even have a form of Elizabeth in it. Did she name herself because thought she was Queen Elizabeth or Liz Taylor? | Sheila Oh | ||
| Hanoi Rocks | Hanoi doesn't rock. It's a Communist city. And besides, none of their members are Vietnamese. | Rock Maninoff | ||
| The Unlikely Candidates | In what election are these people running for? | Opie M. | ||
| Suddenly, Tammy! | This is an actual indie band. A phrase like this doesn't seem right as a band name. Plus, none of its members are even named Tammy. | Mr. Critic | ||
| Suicidal Tendencies | A tendency is not a human and can't sing. You wouldn't yell something like, "Look at that poor, stupid tendency!" | Rock Maninoff | ||
| The Supremes | Before the famous 1960's girl group from Motown, there was a 1950's R&B group from New Orleans with the same name. (The earlier one wasn't nearly as well known, however.) | Robert Jon Brown | ||
| Pee Shy | Sounds like someone who can't urinate in a public restroom. Are they admitting to having that problem? | Thaddeus Gammelthorpe | ||
| Cage the Elephant | That's just animal cruelty. | dominicmgm | ||
| The Tams | A tam is a type of military cap, and we all know hats don't sing. | Reggie Pillbox | ||
| The Pretenders | Before the well-known New Wave band started in the late 1970s, there was a R&B band with the same name in the 1960's. | Robert J Brown | ||
| The Verve Pipe | It just sounds as if two random words were put together. Even if there is a such thing as a verve pipe, it still doesn't make sense. | Lance Crackers | ||
| Jah Wobble's Invaders of the Heart | It's kinda long, plus it sounds unappealing in several ways. | Dr. Critic | ||
| Juice Wrld | It sounds like the name of a group, but it's just one person instead. | Kii |

Submissions Are Accepted Again
Much like the stupid song lyrics page, I get a lot of submissions for this page. More than I can really handle. The problem is that I get a lot of "Blink 182 is stupid 'cuz I said so" submissions, which I have to waste time deleting (though not much). I also get a lot of submissions that just aren't funny. I guess the real problem is that the word stupid can mean so many things, and hence every band name could be considered stupid.
So in short, don't bother sending me stupid email about this stupid page, or you're stupid.
If you have a creative/humorous idea, please submit it.
