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: | ||
Duck Weight | Obscure reference to "Monty Python and the Holy Grail". The quote was, "If it weighs the same as a duck, it must be a witch." | DAVID HARGARTEN | ||
Duck'd | The name of my company that makes stuff out of duct tape. | Spongebob SquarePants's Lady Friend | ||
Ducks In Reverse | Me and my friend Brittany came up w/this when we were going on a walk. There was a little boy on a scooter thing quacking like a duck then he started backing up and going "beep beep beep". So I go..."Ducks in Reverse". Thats a cool band name. And Brittany's like "Yeah it is!! Thats gonna be our band name! Ducks In Reverse!" So it stuck. | Squatt | ||
Ducks On Quack | I'm not in a band but I just thought of it. It's a great play on words too. I think it would be great for a rock/pop band. | i forgots | ||
Ducks Under Ice | As many people know, this is from "The Catcher in the Rye" where Holden Caulfield is wondering where the ducks go when winter comes. It sorta describes our ska/punk/emo/core sound. | Biscuit McGee | ||
Ducttape Bandages | From looking at a list of uses for duct tape, which suggested using it as a band-aid for really big cuts. That really amused me for some reason. | Subject to Change | ||
Dude On Fire | When I put guitar hero world tour for the first time the randomized band name was this and when the logo came out it had a teddy bear on fire. I thought the logo went with the name | Albert | ||
Dude's Old Car | My sister tells me that her favorite movie line is "Hey, isn't that Dude's old car?" She can't remember where it's from, though. | El Davo | ||
Duderonomy | It would be a good name for surf-christian rock band. | Rachel | ||
Dudes From Asflynx | It was a book I read. | Dudes from Pluto | ||
The Dueling Doulas | This would rock: the band could actually sing duets while delivering babies onstage. Throw in some fire-breathing and strobe lights and you got yourself one sick rock show! | Jason Reeher | ||
Duey, Fleesum and Howe Associates | Another take on the old law firm joke Dewey, Screum and Howe, which was mentioned somewhere else on amiright. | Lance Crackers | ||
DUFI | Means "Dance, You F****** Idiots" Maybe for an alternative/dance band...first album could be "Two Left Feet", first single, "Spastic Twitching" | Syntania | ||
Duge | I was really bored hanging out with my buds and one of their names is Doug. So I was like what if your name was spelled like this--- Dug. And it didnt look right and somehow added an E and got Duge (Doo-ge) | joe | ||
Dugout Dads | A 40+ boy band for baseball fans. | Junior | ||

Dull Ginzu | Named after the greatest knife in the world: The Ginzu. But even a dull one can sever your finger. | chong | ||

Dumpster Baby | It hurts, but you can't look away........ | Johnny Utah | ||
Dunkin Donut Doofuses | It's alliteral. For those that run on Dunkin 24/7. | Opie M. | ||
Duodenum | Pronounced Doo-odd-numb. It's a part of the large intestines, i think. I learned it in my junior year of high school in my anatomy class. I thought is was such a cool word and name for a band now and 4 years later i still haven't gotten it out of my head. Just the way it looks is cool and then you say it and WOW the pronounciation is even cool! | Cristy | ||
The Duplicates | The editor doesn't like duplicate name entries, but what about a rock band named The Duplicates? Of course they will try to duplicate original songs. | Mark Mywerd | ||
Durant Durant | It's like Duran Duran, but it's also like NBA player Kevin Durant | JeReMy | ||
Dusty Mops Ruin Tara's Reputation | I lifted a dusty mop and Tara (some girl in my class) said dusty mops ruin her reputation.punk. | hamp | ||
Dutch Rapists | My pal Kim's folks left her by herself for two weeks, and I was heading over one day so she said I could just come on in because she'd leave the door unlocked. I was like, but anyone could walk in! Then she said, "Well, I'll just leave a note then: Rapists go away!" The Dutch part comes from an aborted game of Trivial Pursuit. | Kristina | ||
Duval's Finest | This is kool, because it would be the only band( rock) from duval.. It would be all Ghetto Girls who can reallt throw down and shake what there mommas gave them. This name came to be one day when I was watching Bet. It was a girl band on stage and they were rocking it and I said to myself if I ever had a band it would be called Duval's Finest cuz we all from DUVAL!!!!!!!!!!! | Katherine | ||
DVD Player | It'd be interesting | kid | ||

Dwindling Accounts | This was almost the name of our new wave band in the 80's after we purchased our PA! | gadriel | ||

A Dying Fate | it sounds sick and it would go with an emo band | klaude m | ||
Dying Lachesi | We were desperate for something that wasn't too "The Blood Of The Velvet Moon, Of The Black Rose Vampire of Vampirya in TransTransylvania" TM, in brevis the typical bulls*** you get out of Goth/Metal bands. I was reading something about the Greek myth of the three Old Hags who Thread and Cut our destiny, and then it just popped that if one of them was to die, we'd have no destiny, so here goes. I think Lachesi is the one who actually knits the thread, but that was just a coincidence, it was just the name that I liked the most. By the way, the other two are Atropo and Cloto. | Krystal | ||
Dylan Dog | This is the name of this really wierd Italian comic book about zombies and stuff like that, havent got a clue why its called Dylan Dog, still is got a nice punch to it. | Tom Holt | ||
Dylan Hates Ketchup | A long story, but originates from a brief phone conversation I had with Bob Dylan in February 1974, when I was 17. True story. | Woody Thomas | ||
The Dylsexics | Much like "The Dyslexics" except it's self-referential. | RevengeFromMars YouTube | ||
Dylsexics of the Wolrd Untie | I saw this on a website for bathroom graffiti | JeReMy | ||
Dynamic Divas | I just figure it would be a good name for a female band about to hit their middle years. Destiny's Child on hormone replacement tablets? | Ms. Frisky | ||
Dynamic Effect | Way back when I played the trumpet it was two of the pillars of a succesful performance, dynamic contrast and tonal effect. Great for Jazz or rythym bands | Sub Zero | ||
Dynamic Equilibrium | Besides sounding cool, it connotes a sense of stability and level-headedness. And also that the band plays well together, of course. | kelpylion | ||
Dynamite | I think it is cool because AC/DC plays a song called TNT. | joey chick | ||
Dynamite Trend | It's in the song, "No Revolution" by The Explosion. | narayan | ||
Dynamo Crap | I was holding a pair of sunglasses in my hand and, completely by accident, looked down at the writing on the inside of one of the earpieces. It read "DYNAMO C RAP." I have no idea what this means--the name of the style of sunglasses they were, I suppose--but the C and the RAP were just a tad too close. I started laughing and then realized that this would make a wonderful band name. | Rachel Amiranth | ||
Dynimostia | I was just thinking of dynamite and thought it would be gay if I said that. So I just sort of twisted it. | JaCoBsOdA | ||
Dysfunktional | Obviously having some fun with the word disfunctional. And they'd play funk music (if you're into that of course) obviously! | Edward | ||
The DYSL3XICS | The Dyslexics was mis spelled. | roger ekstrom | ||

Dyslexic Dog | Its a name for any band who thinks they are God like! | elzeed | ||
Dyslexic Dog | This became an inside job at one of my old jobs. One of my coworkers was talking about his dog being diabetic - never knew that could happen anyway - and it came out of his mouth as "dyslexic", bringing on an endless stream of one liners. "Dyslexic dog barking....fra fra fra..." It's a great image. | Binnath | ||
The Dyslexics | Finally a band that doesnt try to cover up their stupidity and illiteracy! Most bands couldnt even survive these days without their personal assisstants. Dyslexics of the world UNTIE! (yes i meant to spell it like that) [Ed.'s Note: Dyslexics are NOT stupid. They have a disease.] | Pigertaws | ||
Dyslexics Untie | It's an old joke, but it would make a good band name. They could sing screwy lyrics and have an excuse. | GarfieldKB | ||
Dysuria | It's cool because it means painful urination! | Nick Norwood |
