Names -> Stupid Band Names -> F

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.

Fall Out Boy Um... hello? What are they falling out of? A window? A car? Why don't they just put their seat belt on!!! katelyn
The Far Out Son Of Lung One of the other names that Future Sound of London Published music under. I did not know that the Lungs had sons and why is that son so 'Far Out'? karnov
Faster Pussycat "Faster Cheetah", or even just shortening it to "Faster Cat" I could see, but "PUSSYCAT??!" That just sounds so sissyfied. Not what I'd pick for a rock band, let alone a hair-metal band. (which is what they were.) Jonathan S.
Fat Boy Slim Fat Boy. Slim....Confused. atomicfireball
Fatboy Slim Well he's neither fat or slim, the only thing thats right is "boy" but I guess calling your band "Boy" would be even worse Mushi
Fergie Might not sound so stupid if the 'G' were pronounced like a 'J'. It looks like it should be pronounced that way IMO. A. Person
Fergie If she wants to go far as a solo artist, I think she should change her name (or better yet, use her real name). "FUR-ghee" sounds rather lame, nerdy and dumb. I mean her music is good, but the way she says that name? Mr. Critic
Finger Eleven A normal person doesn't have 11 fingers. Mr. Critic
Firesign Theater Reminds me too much of Sesame Street. Hello, this is Alistair Cookie, reporting from the Monsterpiece Theater. Ah, fond memories of Sesame Street there. Bobo
Firesign Theater It sounds like that cheesy movie theater on the corner in the scummiest part of town that was built in 1902, is crumbling and shows porn flicks and 1970's disney movies. Cel-Chan
Fishbone Sounds like something the cat dragged in! Chris
Five For Fighting 1) It's not even a band, it's just one person. 2) His fake name doesn't even pertain to the sappy songs he writes and performs.  American Drool
Flaming Iguanas of Love Saw this band's name on a record album once - never heard their music but the name was so weird it stuck with me. Perfect stupid name - makes no sense and unforgetable! hallam
Flaming Lips I saw them in concert and I was disappointed when the singer didn't light his face on fire! Mitch
Flav-va-Flav Its Stup-pid-Stup! Mike Florio
Flogging Molly I thought beating women went out with horse-drawn buggies--and what did Molly ever do to you?! Jonathan S.
The Flopping Body Bags Yes, it honestly is a real band. And yes, it produces a truly disturbing mental image, doesn't it? E.A.
Flybanger C'mon man, a FLY? Isn't it enough that ya pulled its wings off? Chrystal
The Flying Burrito Brothers OK, help me here.... Dano
Flying Lizzards Not to be confused with the Burrowing Elephants. Luke
Flyleaf You've got a leaf in your fly?! Isn't the main singer (of this band) a girl? This gets my vote for silliest-sounding band name ever. Jonathan S.
Foghat Fog is gaseous, not solid, so it's literally impossible even try to make anything out of it, including a hat. Jonathan S.
Foo Fighters Should have been Kung-Foo Fighters but their budget was too low to waste character space! Dan Abnormal
Four Non Blondes Just because they're red heads or burnets doesn't mean they have to choose that name. It's good to be a non blonde, really. Stockton
Four Non-Blondes What the hell is wrong with being blonde, may I ask? Besides, not being blonde doesn't make your music any better, sorry to say. Cel-Chan
Fox the Fox From the Department of Redundancy Department ... Todd W. Zimmerman
Frankie Goes To Hollywood It would sound better as a title on a movie about someone, named Frankie, who goes to Hollywood. Mads
Fred Locks Rhymes with "dreadlocks". And he's a reggae singer. It's a spectacularly failed attempt at cleverness. Todd W. Zimmerman
Frickin' A You're not likely to make any 'brownie points' with parents if you include a crudity in your band's name. Jonathan S.
Frizzle Sizzle It sounds like a hair salon whose hairstyles are at least 20 years out of date. Todd W. Zimmerman
Front 242 Yet another name with a number at the end. Makes me wonder what happened to the first 241 fronts. Dr. Radium
Frou Frou I never quite understood this band name. I mean, it sounds kinda dumb...but I'm sure it means something, altho I can't imagine what. Mr. Critic
Frozen Ghost It sounds like something the ice cream man gives to children on Halloween. Todd W. Zimmerman

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.
