Names -> Stupid Band Names -> N
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.
Name | Description | Submitted by: | ||
| N'Sync | How can they be in sync when they WHINE so dang much?? | ~*^Girl^*~ | ||
| N.E.R.D. | It might make most people (nerd-rock fans notwithstanding) want to not listen to the band. | hamburger456 | ||
| Nada Surf | "Nada" means "nothing" in Spanish, so how does nothing surf? | Jonathan S. | ||
| The Naked Brothers Band | First of all, they're not naked. Second, only two of them are brothers. Third, there's a GIRL in the band. A girl can certainly NOT be called a brother. Fourth....eeeeeeeeeeeeew!!!!! | Mister Critic | ||
| The Naked Brothers Band | It sound more like a group of strippers than a kid's band, and the band actually falls into the latter category. | kasumi | ||
| Nelly | The elephant packed her bags and ran awy to the circus. | YASMR | ||
| Nelly | It sounds like he's a horse on a ranch | Annie | ||
| Nelly | It's a dude, for Pete's sake! Well, there was this baseball player named Nellie Fox and it was a dude. At least Nelly Furtado is a lady. | crazydon | ||
| Nelly | I thought it was a girl at first. And I kept wondering. Then I saw the video for "Country Grammer"(which I thought was a country song) and then I realized that Nelly was a guy. It scared me | CrazyBandie | ||
| Nelly | It makes me think of Little house on the Prairie. That mean little daughter of the Olsens. | B | ||
| Nena | Is it the female lead vocal or the band? | Vic George | ||
| Nervous Postman | Our postman is always drunk.... | Magarac | ||
| Neutral Milk Hotel | They were a great, experimental, inventive band, so why'd they have to pick a name with such boring connotations? That'd be like calling Sonic Youth something like Wallpaper. | Cat | ||
| Never Heard Of It | When I was looking up the lyrics for their song "The Taco Song," I thought that the person who posted the lyrics didn't know who the performer was! Turns out that it was actually the name of the band! | Rachel | ||
| New Fast Automatic Daffodils | They were cool but God knows where they got the name from. | Johnny D | ||
| Next | Next is next. Who's on first? | Cel-Chan | ||
| Next | Is it now? Or before? Or after? Oh, wait. It's next. I think. | Billy F. | ||
| Nickelback | Sounds like a) a less important position on a football team, or b) a special kind of cash refund | Mac | ||
| Nine Days | Given they're known for just one hit ("Absolutely (Story Of A Girl)"), I'd say that's about how long their fame lasted. | Jonathan S. | ||
| Nine Inch Nails | Methinks it's awkward because the name is plural, but it has just one member (Trent Reznor). | Jonathan S. | ||
| Nine Inch Nails | One of the most makes-you-wanna-throw-up names in history! Think about it, a guy walking around with Nine Inch Nails! Maybe they saw the movie Edward Scissorhands while deciding name... | Rob | ||
| Nine Inch Nails | They could sell their cds at a hardware store AND get away with it. | Mac | ||
| Ninety Pound Wuss | Why is the wuss ninety pounds? Why is he a wuss? This is like the most random band name ever. | Ryan | ||
| Nirvana | There was already a band named Nirvana which was formed in the 60's and Curt Kobain must have been too stoned to think of using another name for his band. | Paul Warren | ||
| Nirvana | It sounds like some expensive wine or clothing store. Maybe it's the name of an estate in Georgia. Do you have a clue??? | Princess Chic | ||
| No Doubt | No doubt about what...? | Mads | ||
| No Use For A Name | Self-explanatory. If your band has a name, why say that it doesn't have any use for one? | nally | ||
| Nu Shooz | Ummmm new shoes. is that it? Anyway another misspelled band. | kevin | ||
| The Number 12 Looks Like You | Uh, no, it most certainly does not. Seriously, what moron thought THIS name was a good idea? | Jonathan S. |

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.
