Names -> Cool Band Names -> P, Page 3
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: | ||
| The Pet Gods Sacrafice | I was looking at this website, and my dog which is a pomeranian was sitting on my lap. I held her up in the air like Simba is on Iion king. I was like "sacrafice". Then I looked over at my cat, and was like this would be a cool band name - "Sacrafice Your Pets to the Gods." That sounded to long, like an ad. Then it was changed to Sacrafice Pets Gods, that was just DUMB. Then I thought up The Pet Gods Sacrafice. It sounds deep and dark. Almost 17th century gothic like. | bad_gurl | ||
| Pet Paracide | My friend's cat killed it's mom......................sad....... | Floydigan | ||
| Pet Rock | A band named after the best invention ever. | Transfersion | ||
| Peter and the Excavators | I was watching this show on Discovery Channel one time, and these guys were building a suspension bridge or something, and the narrator said something like, "If Peter and the excavators don't get here on time, that could cause some serious problems." And I thought that it was a pretty good name. | Mitch | ||
| Peter Jackoffsky | I thought this band name would be a clever pun on the name of the 19th century composer Peter Tchaikovsky. | Renard | ||
| Petrified Garden Gnomes | Hmmmm... it's cool because how many bands can you think of with the word petrified, garden, or gnomes in it? NONE! Something I came up with while driving past a house with gnomes on the lawn. I realize that gnomes are petrified. I just thought it was a tight name! | Pigertaws | ||
| Petticoat Mafia | Just has a nice ring to it. It's a totally juxtaposition of two extremely different images. | Miki Koishikawa | ||
| PG-13 | In my band, we all are about the age of 13. It's just a cool name. | Roper32 | ||
| PG-13 | Well me and my friends started this band called "PG-13". It didn't really work out but I still love the name! | Chassidy | ||
| Phairly Insane | it is perfect for anyone who is crazy or daring but not so crazy that it hurts yourself or others! i like it i was going to use it for my band but they just didnt like it. | plaidloser | ||
| Pham's Nebraska Hat | In college, I had a friend named Pham, who always wore a University of Nebraska hat (we went to school in Florida, and he wasn't even from Nebraska). The first single would be called "Big Red Corn." | Ace! | ||
| Phantasmagoria | A constantly changing scene composed of numerous elements. It could be compared to illusions, but the name sounds sweet!! | Stuart | ||
| Phantasmagoria | a quickly changing series of illusory or fantastic images, as experienced in dreams. a representation of different, often fantastic images, as seen in certain styles of art. it has something to do with dreamig... and when people first become a star the say its just like a dream...so this is just a diffrent name for a dream... and it sound kinda cool and like something that not many people would think of... | alygal | ||

| Phase Doubt of Focus | I was listening to my friends talking about the video game they were playing. One of them said, "That creep just phased outta focus, then disappeared. I doubt if he's still alive." Well, I jumped up and said ,"Thats a great band name!" My friends thought I was nuts because they didn't hear what they had just said. So I wrote it out (changing it around a little) but they still thought I was crazy. But it struck me as cool, and I stick by it. | Giddy Gracer | ||
| Phase Two | my band and me were at wendys, and trying to think of a band name for us.....we were drivin in my car on the way back,and as we pulled into my subdivision, its fairly new, and theyr still building..the sign said "phase two comming soon" we thot it wud be cool to name our band phase two..then take a pic of the sign and put it on our website..like a logo.. | mike | ||

| Phat Phinesse | I was listening to Fatboy Slim while I was working out at a local healthclub, and the word "fitness" came to mind right as I thought of the word fat. I thought, Add "PH" and that'll be cool. | Brandon | ||
| Phate | One of my friends is what would call a "Hacker", and we were just sitting a few seconds ago and thought that this would be cool. I guess hackers like to put "Ph" in place of the letter F or something. I like it | Carver Mangolia | ||

| Philanthropy | I heard it in some game I was playin lol, it means ' a love of mankind' | Mike | ||
| Phineas Gage | I learned about this guy in Psychology. He was a miner during the 1800's. He was setting up some dynamite in a mine when it accidently went off. The explosion sent a 2 foot metal cylinder through is head. It tore through his frontal lobe, but miraculously he still lived. From then on, he couldn't sensor his thoughts, and he would have violent bouts of anger towards everything. He became a town legend. | Brendan D | ||
| Phixx | sounds like a typical boyband name. fix as in manufactured. | penny | ||
| Phlatulence | I took flatulence [farts (for all those who don't know what flatulence is)] and spelled it with the first two letters of my last name. | Nick Phillips | ||
| Phleem | It's from a really old Dilbert cartoon. This is perfect if you wanna be vaguely disgusting yet squeaky clean, since it sounds like 'phlegm' but it's not. | IHaveNoBrain | ||

| Phoenix Phlood | beginning of phoenix sounds like the beginning of flood | Gary S. | ||
| Phone Call From Beyond The Grave | It's kind of long, but I think it's cool. I heard it from the movie "Monster House". When the old man died, the old man's house called the little guy then he was cared and all was like "yadda-yadda blah-blah". Then a guy named Bones said, " A phone call..from beyond the grave!!" | Oh no! | ||
| Phoney Real Estate | It's an oxymoron. I mean, is there a such thing as phoney estate? | buy | ||
| Phonobia | I have a unrational fear of the telephone. | Deathawk | ||
| Phoolz | I was just randomly thinking about how much I hate Lipton Ice Tea. Then I thought about the the rapper Ice-T, and how he liked to say foow (fool) a lot. | Brett | ||
| Phototsynthesis | I think there's probably a lot of bands with this name, but just incase...it sounds like some band a teacher made up for a science project, crossed with Evanescence. | Elisabeth | ||
| The Phycotic Tea Cups | I just thought it sounded cool. | erin | ||
| Phycotoxic | I came up with it mixing Toxicity(song by System of a Down) and Phyco. | jimmy | ||
| Physhaotic | well this is cool becuase it well just is it can discribe someone who is out there and wild or just different and punks and sk8rs arnt only different but they can help others mold. Forge there own path. | Cara | ||
| Physical Drive Error | I was talkin to my friend about why he had to get a new notebook pc. Turns out his original notebook pc somehow developed a physical drive error. And I thought 'Man thats a cool term.' Makes it sound like its goin crazy or sumthin. | Jack | ||
| Physical Properties | Onetime during science class, we were talking about the Periodic Table of Elements. The teacher told us about Phisical Properties. It sounds like a real band name, but it's not. That's why I think it's cool. | student teacher | ||
| Pi | Because pi is awesome and as far as we know, infinite. Or maybe I just like math too much. Hey, don't call me a geek! | Lizzard Lady | ||
| The Piano Prunes | I think it's best for a band that has lots of piano music in their songs. | Deedee | ||
| Piano Sandwich | Either a town in Illinois, a typo, or a brain fart. Either way, funny. | IHaveNoBrain | ||
| Piano's & Keyboard's | I dunno how i made this name; it just came to me | The Mole | ||
| Pianosa | The fictitious setting of my favorite book, Catch-22. | RIssY | ||
| The Pickeled Fish Ear Lobes | Joke with friends, thought it was funny because fish don't have ear lobes.Anyway, why would someone want to eat them? | St.Jimmy | ||
| Picket Fence Cartel | It's the name of an At The Drive In song. They're this terribly awful band that my friend likes. | amazing | ||

| Picklehead | Yeah | mark | ||
| Picture Perfect | Well for the sort of music we sing and play it totally suits. I was looking at photos of our band. I said we look picture perfect | J. Turner | ||
| Pie | I saw a commercial for Yoplait yogurt advertising the new flavor Boston Cream Pie. They used Boston's "More Than A Feeling" and I realized there were bands called Boston and Cream. Why not complete the trilogy? | Brian Kelly | ||
| The Pie is Finite | I was up late one night reading an essay for school, and I hated everything the author stood for. But at one point in the essay, he says something like, "The pie can expand, but at some point the pie is finite." That was the only phrase in the paper I liked or agreed with. Then I thought, hmm, a punk band called "The Pie is Finite" Cool, huh. | GypsyTryxx | ||
| Piece Be Steel | My cousins and I love the Madea plays and there's this line in one of them that goes, "As it says...in the book of Revelationsuh....The Lord said, Peace be still. Piece...be steel. Piece is made of steel." and then Madea whips out a gun. So ummm..yeah | Ichigo_Indigo | ||
| Pieces of Fate | Sounds like "pieces of eight" but less piratey. Might be good for any angsty bands. | RevengeFromMars YouTube | ||
| Pieces of the Comet | I was watching the Sci-Fi Channel once and they had a commercial for the movie "Meteorites". They showed an astronomer saying "The pieces of the comet are not breaking up." and ever the wise-guy, I joked "In fact, they're working on a new album." | Brian Kelly | ||
| Pierre Causemybladder'sempty | My favorite fake name used by Colin Mochrie in the "Whose Line is it Anyway?" game "Weird Newscasters" | JeReMy | ||
| Pigeon | me and my mates were standing around one day, when a huge pigeon flew down and landed on our table. one of my friends Josh yelled "AH! PIGEON!" and the rest is history. | SystemOfADownJunkie | ||
| The Pigeons of Phoenix | Jenny Owen Youngs tweeted a picture of a pigeon sat right next to her feet with the caption "the pigeons of Phoenix know no fear." Thought that would make a cool title for their first album as well | Joe Wood | ||
| Piggy Bank Thiefs | Just think is a cool name for a rock band, sort of foo fighters style is kind of hilarious to and I find cool | Cocco | ||
| pigs in labour | kittie should call themselves that because they sound like traumitized pigs | dipsy | ||

| Pillows Of Cremation | Within the celestial object long known as the Eagle Nebula, the Hubble Space Telescope discovered a detail that has been named "The Pillars Of Creation". A friend of mine, who strenuously objects to religious language being co-opted into science, calls it the Pillows Of Cremation instead. | D. Melody Dole, MD | ||
| Pilots | You pilot your own life. | NICKI | ||
| Pimp Pill | Sounds like pimple | d2nice | ||
| Pimpalicious Monkeys | Cmon, how can u not love Pimpalicious Monkeys? | Tyler | ||
| The Pimpeks | actually , i didn't come up to that name, my 2 friends imagined it bcs they are starting a punk-rock band, it's an english version of a croatian word ( pimpek in croatian means d*** but in the way you tell it to little children). i think that's a cool name | riA | ||
| Pimple Faced Losers | Well one day I was listening to The All-American Rejects and started thinking about cool "punkish" rock band names that described me and my friends. Well I guess the reason for the "Pimple Faced" part is becuase we all had acne on our faces (like most teens). As for the "Loser" part it was really just becuase we're probably never going to be anything really "unique" in our lives. So ye I think it sounds awsome. | Josh (Josue) | ||
| The Pina Coladas | Ok however the hell u spell pina colada, it would make a cool spanishy name for a bunch of illegal Mexicans trying to slap together a makeshift band or a group of white blonde-haired kids trying to seem cool by starting a rock group. | Nader | ||
| Pina Colonic | From the Simpsons episode where Homer gets a coupon for a free colonic, and starts singing that Rupert Holmes song with changed lyrics. "If you like pina colonics..." | Olvan The Terrible | ||
| The Pinball Dodgers | "Pinball Dodge" was a type of dodgeball game played while I was in grade school at Maryland. The object was to knock down all of other team's bowling pins (5 to a team), as opposed to regular Dodgeball where the opposing team members are hit and eliminated. It still hurt! But no one was called out, just the pins that were knocked down. | game | ||
| Pinball Wizards | From the Who song. (I think...) | Princess Ana | ||
| Pinch Sitter | It's the title of a Daria episode | The Mole | ||
| Pinche Party | My mastering of the Spanish and English language has left me with many Spanglish tokens of wisdom..."pinche party" means f***ing party and if your're a heavy rock/alterntative band, all you want to do is have a pinche party. You gotta say the name with a heavy accent in order to be authentic. | lickety split | ||
| Pine Children | We were coming up with random two word phrases and ths reminded us of a cross between posessed puppets and "village of the damned". | Pudding | ||
| Pine Cone Fight | Sounds like fun doesn't it? | Johnny Utah | ||
| Ping Pong Hazard | I saw a license plate with PPH on it and this just came to me. | >squit< | ||

| Pink Blanket | Great for an all girl group that dresses in soft pink outfits | Marcie | ||
| the Pink Bon-Bons | I was trying to come up with a name for my band and I asked my mom for some ideas. She said her favourite musicians were Pink and Bon Jovi, so she put them together and came up with the pink bon-bons. I wouldn't use it, though. Its too girly for me nd my metal. | Nobody | ||
| The Pink Flamingos | My friend had pink flamingo boxers on and it stuck. | Dylan | ||
| Pink Frilly Knickers | Pink Frilly Knickers makes loads of sense and no sense all at once. It's the complete opposite of our band so we love it. After watching "Bridget Jones' Diary" and hearing about her granny knickers, we came up with it and it just stuck. It's an ace name fore any type of band. | SaSsYsIsTa DoOdY | ||
| Pink Frosting | everyone likes frosting and pink, right? | summer | ||
| Pink Ice | Me and my friends were trying to think of a band name. I looked at my ring, and I shouted "PINK ICE". It just stuck . | Aubree M. | ||
