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.

Name | Origin | Submitted by: | ||
Cesspools In Eden | It's the way this country is like now. People who live in their own little world, partying and escaping from society, thinking life is great while it's far from it---this country's economical and moral decay is sinking further and further into a cesspool. [Ed's note: You could say that for any country. It's just that the evils of America get all the press.;)} | Annie C. | ||
Ceyran Blue | It's cool.... | Misha | ||
CFC | It just sounds good. CFC=chlorofluorocarbons, which are putting holes in the ozone layer. | Scott | ||
The Chad is Great | The phrase Tom Green wouldn't stop saying in "Charlie's Angels". Sounds like a punk rock band name. | Junior | ||

Chains Of Sorrow | ahh well too much of thinking | Joe | ||
Chainsaw Bunnies | DON'T USE. My band is gonna use it. Um...in 6th grade, when I started my "Career" as a cartoonist, I made a cartoon called 'Evil DeathBunnies from Hell' about a group of bunnies that hacked people to shreds with chainsaws because they were tired of...er...being bunnies. So, yes. Chainsaw Bunnies. If you steal it, I'll hurt you. I guess. But it would make you an unoriginal person! | sXemosucksXe | ||
CHAIVET | it means a nothing, not evening a real word, it just means to me a something to me but anyone is nothing is my own nothing | ALX(Prophet SPINE)Alex | ||
Chanandeler Bong | It's cool cuz I heard it on Friends...this is the name that Chandler and Joey's TV Guide comes billed to. The girls guessed it was Chandler Bing, but Ross informs them that it is actually Chanandeler Bong. Chandler then tells Rachel that "it's actually MISS Chanandeler Bong" with a big smirk on his face, which is so typical Chandler that it's so funny! | Fel | ||
Change For A Blue Day | Green Day cover band. Thought it sounded cool when I was high. | Dave | ||
Change For A Penny | It is a rather ridiculous name, as you can't change a penny. Though I do ask around sometimes (well, all the time). | Aj | ||
Change For A Penny | This name is cool because how can you give change for a penny.I came up with this name when my buddies and I started asking for Change for a Penny | WAR85 | ||
Change The Channel | Another name that confuses music fans. | Brit Boxx | ||
Changing Consistency | I just think it sounds cool cuz if something is consistent it's supposed to stay the same so it's sort of contradictory. | Audrey | ||
Channel 7 | it a local cable channel and my mom just started doing a pretty cool show on it | zake man | ||
Channel Lightvessel Automatic | It's one of the sea areas on the UK shipping forecast. I always thought it sounded cool and would make a good band name. Then some b*****d decided to call their band Channel Lightvessel and release an album called Automatic! Robbed! | Dan | ||
Chaos Because | There's a ring to it, don't it?? My friend wanted something Chaos. And I just thought because. | Celine | ||
Chaos Burns White | Well it not satanic like Chaos Burns Red so I changed it to white and it sounded awesome | Caleb | ||
Chaos Legion | Well me and my mate are in this power metal band and we were thinking of names that we could use for songs and we were sort of just looking around the room and I saw this really GAY PC game called Chaos Legion so i thought hey this would be an awsome name for a metal band. | GuitarManGav | ||
Chaos of Darkness | Me and Tirza came up with it. | Chazm | ||
Chaos Theory | I saw it on C.S.I. It is best described as "a butterfly flaps it's wings in China and there's a tornado in Texas". Good name for a alternative band. | Joe Montmatre | ||
Chaotic Carma | We came up with this cause bad s*** kept happening to Fred not that you would know Fred or even care its just carma is the stuff that is like huge coincidence so we thought since it was bad crap happening to him we might as well and we lasted about 2 weeks as a band. | Little-big-foot | ||
Chaotic Emotions | Nothing would mess with your head worse then Emotions in Chaos | LouisianaBigfoot | ||
The Chaperones | If it's not already this should be a band name. Good pop band name. I just think it sounds cool. | Edward | ||

The Character Issues | From a Calvin & Hobbes comic, where Calvin thinks that his dad's character is killing him in the 'Dad Poll'. | therealdeepblue | ||
Characters | On the stage you can be almost any character. | NICKI | ||
Chareesma | When I was a kid I was reading out of an adult book for show and tell, since my aunt wrote it. I pronounced the word "Charisma" "Char-rees-ma", and the teacher was forced to correct me. The year later I moved to St. Louis. Eight years later, I thought I recognized someone at a music competition. It was some guy from my class who only remembered me because of my reading mistake in fourth grade. He played drums, I played bass, so naturally we clicked and formed a band with some of my other friends. | Pseudonym Psally | ||
Charges Of Lime | i was kinda thinking of of citrus fruits and and zapping stuff at the same time so.............. | jake | ||
Chariots of Fire | Joe | |||
Charismatic Assault | I just combined two words with pretty much opposite meanings and came up with this......If you don't know what charismatic means it means like outgoing, easy to get along with so a friendly assault if that makes any sense | kyle | ||
Charlatan Heroes | Well, "charlatan" means false, or pretend... so it's along the lines of "false idols." I'm not sure, I might be using this. | Jack | ||
Charlemagne | This was the name of a song I heard, and I thought it sounded like a really cool band name. Pronounced (Shar-lih-main). It is also the name of a famous king. | Rach | ||
Charles Monroe | The antithesis of Marilyn Manson! Pure as the driven snow christian rock. That sure would be equally annoying. | Matt | ||
Charles Monroe | like marilyn manson but backwards. Marilyn Manson got his name from Marilyn Monroe and Charles Manson so i desided instead of Marilyn Manson it could be Charles Monroe | Nick Rolstad | ||
Charlie-in-the-Box | He's one of the Misfit Toys from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer - the best Christmas movie EVER!!!! | Koala Gurl | ||
Charms | I was reading Harry Potter Books, then there is their subject they call Charms and my cousin says she wants to have a band. When she mentioned the word band, I was reading the next word, which is Charms! | guitar_girl | ||
Charon | I thought Charon would be a cool name for a heavy metal or punk band. Charon is a man you rows dead spirits across the river styx to hades. It sounds cool. It is in the dictonary. You can look it up if you want. | Lauren | ||
Charybdis | I was reading the "The Odyssey" by Homer and thought it would be awesome band name from the Greek myth of a giant whirlpool in the Mediterannean Sea. It swallows ships going by 3 times a day. | Jaymz H. | ||
The CharzFellon | Pronouced like ChargeFellon...But its without the 'g' and drop 'e' and add 'z'. I don't know why but just sounds cool to me. | The Duke | ||
Chasing Alexis | we came up with this band name pretty easily. We were trying to figure one out, and we had been asking my cousin Alexis alot. So our screamer Josh said "Why don't we go chase Alexis for another name?" This was going to be our name before we switched it for "To Save Us All" | Anthony | ||
Chasing Daylight | Not my idea! Its the name 4 the band that my 4 best guy friends are in! I thought they were nuts! | Stephanie | ||
Chasing Evan | My friends and I used to drink Evan Williams Bourbon all the time. One day, I had come up with a name for a band if we ever made one. I guess it's cool for old time sake. | Yeah | ||
Chasing Thunder | me and my friend are trying to make a band... and she came up with this! | oli | ||
Chasing Umbrellas | There's an Abba song that goes "Don't go wasting your emotions", but someone misheard it as "Don't go chasing your umbrella". Don't you just love misheard lyrics? Plus, it just sounds so cool! | Princess Ana | ||
Chastity Belt | Nice name for an up and coming girl's rock band | ryza | ||
Chateau | I love this name because it means castle! And it's an awsome name I got the idea off of the store Le Chateau! | Alexis | ||
Chav Return | I really hate the presence of chavs in my area. But when they stole the Hippie look (that they had previousy sneered at when I wore it), it was the last straw! I never thought I'd say this, but their baby blue hoodies and fake burberry caps will be sadly (but strangely) missed. | poohead | ||
Cheater Key | Another one of the terms used in my line of work. A cheater key is a slender stick that turns on a scanner from an alternative slot while the switch is off. It helps in the cleaning and maintenence of the machine. | Indy | ||
Cheats | I was watching this movie one day that I had never seen before, called, "Cheats." About this High School posse who just absolutely hate school and everything that has to do with school, and of course the school work they have to do. They've been that way ever since Kindercarten. And they grow up to be these lazy ass cheaters that get through life by cheating through it, and they have friends in every group at school because they can get "information" to cheat to get them through tests and stuff. And it ends with the "leader" one might say, actually graduating High School because he cheated through the midterm. Now it might be bad that he cheated, but there's a sense of coolness there. All his friends mumbling under their breaths just loud enough to hear them say, "Cheated the midterm!" or "Cheated, cheater!" Some of his friends decided that they were different and they wanted to do it on their own. But I think it's mostly that they're different, by people who choose to do things the easy way, and others who choose to do it the hard way. So this is a cool name because all the while we may be good, but on the inside we're really bad in our own "innocent" way. okay bad description but i cant think of any other way to describe it :-P | kristen | ||
Check Her Out | I heard this guy with a Cuban accent saying this once, (not to me, unfortunately) and it sounded like, "Checker-ow". It's just a very flowing name. | Sarcasma Creator | ||

The Cheech Boys | Another band that likes the chronic a bit too much. Not sure whether they play surf music or not. | RevengeFromMars YouTube | ||
Cheer Up Chemo Kid | My friend Dani bought a patch one day that said "Cheer Up Emo Kid." The next day at lunch we discovered that someone had added a "ch" in front of the emo part. I thought it would make a really interesting/offensive band name. | Cassandra | ||
Cheers Brother Dom | I was on this retreat a few weeks ago. There was a Franciscan brother named Brother Dominic. He always said "Cheers!" since he was from New Zealand. Someone said something about "Brother Dominic and the teens need to pose for a picture". Someone else said that Brother Dominic and the Teens sounded like a band name, but I didn't like the "teens" part. So I stuck in Cheers instead. | Jess | ||
Cheese | Because it is irrelevant! | A dude | ||
Cheese Crusade | This is actually my character's name in an RPG, waha, but i think this would rock. And in all their videos they can wear swiss cheese costumes and stuff. No, that's just stupid. | paddlewear | ||
