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.

Cosmic Patriot | A line from G.K. Chesterton. Neither a pessimist (the world is not worth my time) nor an optimist (everything is fine just as it is), the cosmic patriot is one who is dissatisfied with things as they are, but loves the world enough to work for its improvement. | Mooby | ||
The Cosmic Toilet | Junior high childishness at its finest. | IHaveNoBrain | ||
Cosmik Whiplash | The kind of music that this band plays is goth, rock, electronic and spacey post apocalyptic pop-punk.

During class me and two of my friends wanted to play dominos, and the domino set the teacher had were special dominos.
