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.

Hidden From Nowhere | It's kinda a play on words which is good for a band name. We had the prviledge of backing up a couple of big bands from Oz and abroad one of our fav shows was "The Juliana Theory" from PA They are awesome blokes. We came up with the name when we liked hidden in a name but also nowhere sounded sick as well. | Nyphoric | ||
Hidden Tears | See my friend cries a lot, but not in public. So one day she was crying i got the idea. | ashley | ||
The Hidden Track(s) or Hidden Track(s) | Hidden tracks are cool. It's on my mind 'cause I've been listening to Dookie, recently, and I have "All By Myself" stuck in my head. It's a funny song. Now go out and by Green Day stuff. Muahahahaha! | 300 Bernard St. Girl | ||

High Coaties | Like "Coyotes"! | The Mole | ||
High Def Blur | It seems cool because high def is supposed to be, well, high def. Therefore NOT blurry. | A Person | ||
High Existence | Sounds intellectual and, in a weird way, sort of evolutional. In a musical world of copycats, it's survival of the fittest, right? | Rachel | ||
High Fall Risk | A friend of mine saw a sticker that said this, and said "that would make a great band name!" | f8 | ||
High Five Ghost | It's a character from the Cartoon Network show Regular Show | JeReMy | ||
High Flying Rocs | This is a sweet nme because it has "High Flying", meaning greatness or acheivers. And Roc is a mythycal bird of prey with enormous strenght and size. Great for a Rock band. | Adam G | ||
High Freeze | There are certain words that, when randomly put together, sound kind of cool. The very thought of the two -- the thoughts the word "high" brings, and the thoughts the word "freeze" brings equal something like ice in the atmosphere or something. Weird. | Natalie | ||
High Fucktose Death Syrup | High fructose corn syrup is said to be just as good as sugar. Here's the truth: it's not. | IHaveNoBrain | ||
High on Living | Ya know in the book 'The Outsiders' it explains how Sodapop gets drunk on just plain living, so my friends and I decided, "Hey! We do that too!" So, yeah, if we ever have a band, that's what it'll be! | Nikki | ||
High On Peroxide | Peroxide is like a super heavy bleach... I heard it from a friend and really liked it as a band name, I wanted to use it for our own band but we were a jazz band for school, so the teachers wouldn't let us. Anyway, hope you like it. :) | Beth | ||

Highina | It's pronounced "hyena" | de | ||

Highwater O'Shea | There's this guy in one of my classes who we call O'Shea- mostly because nobody knows his first name- and he never wears pants that fit. A couple of us wrote a song about him called "here comes the flood". Good stuff... | AndyRoo | ||
Hillbilly Dating Service | I was watching "Who's Line Is It Anyway," when on came a hillbilly dating service as a joke.

Hinkey | Because it mean something strange. | Robert | ||

Hip Hop Anonymous | From the Adam Sandler movie "Big Daddy," when someone tried to say the word "hippopotamus." | Olvan The Terrible | ||
Hippos Hambrientos Hambrientos | It means Hungry Hungry Hippos in Spanish. Once a few years ago, my little neighbors, who were 5 and 6 wanted the game Hungry Hungry Hippos for christmas. They begged & pleaded and they got it. Only it wasn't Hungry Hungry Hippos. It was Hippos Hambrientos Hambrientos. "Santa Claus" had grabbed the Spanish version instead. My friends and I still crack up when we paly that game. & I always pull it out when I babysit. It would be the best band name. H3 for life! | SillyChicken | ||

Hiroshima Snot Rocket | In the game Tony Hawk's Underground 2, this was suggested by Tony Hawk for something you should try for the in-game "World Destruction Tour". | JeReMy | ||

Holey Moley | The phrase 'holy moly' is used as an exclamation to express surprise or astonishment. It sounds cool because it has the word 'mole' in it. And moles live underground in holes. | The Mole | ||
Holiday Gravy Boat Explosion | My friend was telling me about a horrible gravy accident at her mother-in-laws house during our "What happened at your family's Christmas celebration" discussion.

Holley and the 4 Barrels | This is one for all you hot rodders. I used to run a holley carb on mine and can see a five piece band led by a rock chick called holley. Way to cool!! Any takers?? | Jeff | ||
Hollow Notes | While we're on the subject of misheard lyrics, how about misheard BAND names. My sister's friend thought for the longest time that this was the name of "Hall and Oates". Perhaps it's more unique than just two names!! | M-B52 | ||
Hollow Point | My son was looking for a name for his punk band and I thought that this seemed appropriate for the "explosive" and driving kind of music they play. Plus, the name has meanings on more than one level---a hollow point bullet is one that explodes as it penetrates its target, not unlike the way punk music invades your senses; and since punk music seems to reflect a sense of nihilism, it seems to ask the question, of life and everything in it, "What's the point?....Everything, everyone is hollow........empty." | Cherry | ||
Hollow Temple | well its kinda for a gothic depressing band that will soon kill themesleves in canada. Your temple is your body and if u have a hollow temple i guess you could say your depressed. i dont knw. have fun iwth it i guess. your the one that made the site | shanana | ||
Holly Sheet | well i wanted it to name for my band but again i thought it sounds kinda silly to me but if you like it then.... | Arx | ||

Holy | hej venner | |||
Holy Cow | i think of this name just as a name i say a lot see i would be like Holy cow i messed up and my friend David says STOP praising a stupid cow and i say i cant help it it is just a word u say a lot but i think this name is hilarious it would go for a punk band or something. | Kayla | ||
Holy Farglesnot | From a comic strip somewhere. Not sure which one. | IHaveNoBrain | ||
Home Made Skunk Asylum | I think it would make like a cool punk rock band name. A home made project sort of thing, plus I like asylums, and then my friend added the skunk part in! | RockGodGuy | ||
Home School Rocket Science | Saw this on a marquee at the local Tae Kwan Do dojo. I guess they are offering classes for home school kids. | Teddy Salad | ||

Homemade Hamburgers | We thought of it in cooking class and thought it ROCKED. So we were laughing the whole time of picturing it being an actual band name! | Vance&Ashleigh | ||
Homer and the Sexuals | Someone once called my bandmates and I this (Not the name of my band, though). It was funnier in retrospect, since word got around that it was the actual name of my band | Homer Stunkt | ||
Homesick | Idk, it just came to me.Why not? I think it's pretty cool for an indie rock band or something. | bouzer. | ||
The Honey Badgers | An awesome animal name | sutch | ||
Honey Bucket and The Tubeless Turdherders | Welll at a concert on porta pottie row there was a "honey bucket" truck to service the porta potties and as it was sucking up all the "honey", you know herding up all the turds, I noticed it had tubeless tires. | Badboybear | ||
Honey Dipped Dwarfs | Short 'n sweet. All I have to say. | Revolutinyesitis | ||
Honey Mustard Badger | When I was little, I thought that honey mustard came from honey badgers. It made sense to me at the time, because why else would they be called 'honey' badgers then if they don't make honey? This makes a good band name | Lori Blonde | ||
Honey Sanchez | She was a Roller Derby chick back in the day. | Joser | ||
Hong Kong Suicide | Took a random city and a random word and voila! Hong Kong was a good choice because I like 3 word names. | Faizal | ||
Honor Student Dropouts | I made this name for my band because I always get bad grades. I then dropped out for a while, before going to a Alt-Ed. I do good here, so therefore, I'm an Honor Student, Dropout. | Nick | ||
The Hoo-too-foo-too-boo-to-bah Ensemble | The idea comes from a song called 'Somebody Stole My Hoo-too-foo-too-boo-to-bah', in 'The Cat In The Hat Song Book' by Dr. Suess. Although nothing in the song implies that the stolen item was a musical instrument, nothing implies it wasn't, either. So this band name suggestion is based on a surmise that a Hoo-too-foo-too-boo-to-bah is a musical instrument. All of that book's songs can now be found on YouTube, by the way. | Regina Haniger | ||
Hood Rats | Jon | |||
The Hooded Hoodlums | me & my friends always where hoodies & this guy yelled at us and called us hoodlums | d | ||
Hoodwink | This was a band we started in high school. It means to trick or influence by slyness. | Mike | ||
Hoof-Hearted | I think it would be a great name for a country band. They could sell t-shirts with a horse shoe over the left breast pocket. And there could be a rival heavy metal band called "ice melted". | holliwil | ||
Hooked on Estrogen | Acronym is HoE and the hooked on estrogen implies the band's sexual nature | wes | ||
Hoonglah | From 'jungla', which is Spanish for jungle and is pronounced "hoon-glah'". | Roberto | ||
Hooray For Air Conditioners | I came up with it when it was hot out. I walked into an air-conditioned place. If you're starting a band, feel free to use this if you like. Sounds like a band somewhat like TMBG. | Tom |
