Names -> Cool Band Names -> S, Page 2

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:
Savage Raspberry		"Framboise sauvage" is a French drink - the name means "Wild Raspberry". "Sauvage" sounds a bit like "savage." Hence, "Savage Raspberry." That's it, really.		Red Tim
Savage Soul		Our new band was needing a name. we all were in the process of putting in our own ideas. I liked the name savage but thought it needed another word, so out of several different ideas, I let my friends and my band bros choose their favorite name off my list of potential names. instantly everyone liked "savage soul". it sounds badass (like a rock band name should be) and there it was!		Bret Dean
Savas Backwards		my friends dad's name is Savas, and for some reason we became really obsessed with the fact that its a palindrome (SP?), so we decided we'd have to have a band called Savas Backwards, because "savas" backwards is savas.		Jess
Saverg		i just think making new cool sounding words is better for alias' or band names.. and look! it says graves backwards.. o.O		mike
Saves Nine		At my church, we were playing a matching game; and my little piece of paper said, "Saves nine". When I found the other half (A stitch in time), I thought that it would be a cool band name.		john
The Sawgrass Circle		I came up with the name by looking at random street signs.		Steve
Saxina Garage		Me n my friends came up with this because we were jokin sayin we were gunna make a kazoo band with trash cans and everything!		Chris
Saxophilia		What do you get when Bill Clinton takes his sax on the road? Hey! Maybe Monica can go along and sing "back-up" (or something...)		Red
Saying Sorry...		Well, I was listening to some poetic music that made me cry. It made me want to go say sorry to everyone.		ur face
Sayonara		Say sayonara (good bye) to all normal punk bands. Our band is made up of 3 girls and one guy (me)! Our awesome style of punk with female vocals will rule your stereo! Sayonara to all the traditional rock and hello to us- SAYONARA!		starry punk
The Sbarriers		Four overweight nerds who play geek-rock music (like They Might Be Giants or Weezer) and love video games, anime, and Italian food. Their name comes from Sbarro, an Italian chain restaurant, and the "barrier" part is because they're so fat they block doorways.		Olvan The Terrible
Scalene		This band name is awesome because scalene is mostly heard as a scalene triangle (with all 3 sides being different) And having a band you would always have different people in it with different intrests. It would work best with a 3 member band		Emmie
Scandalous Pants		I was watching Jeopardy! one day & the category was feminism or something like that. Anyway, the last clue was about a woman who was known for her "scandalous pants". I think it would be great for a punk band.		Allyson
Scantily-Clad Midgets		Midgets are hilarious,as is nudity. Scantily-Clad Midgets would be so great.. just think about it. Almost as funny as that commercial making fun of the 70's show: ChiPs.. renamed Chimps with Mr. Pickles, Captain JoJo		cb
The Scapegoats		A scapegoat is a underling who takes blame for the corruption of his superiors. There are more of these in the world than people think. Thus, the real perps in white collars crimes get off scot-free.		Mark Mywerd
Scared Dreams		Dreams can make you go crazy! This dream leaves scar...i geuss		India
Scared Fearless		I think its cool because it contradicts itself, and because it sounds like a great rockband name		Holly
Scared Of Coulered Knights		well it all began one day off the west coast of mongolia bay ,I WAS SURFING AND RIMJAWING WHILE I STUMBLED UPON A CRAB eating a barnacle. i looked carefulley and observed the crab's minge, then i took my pet nose for a walk to my grandmothers house which was covered in honey from the honeybee. while i was there i stumbled upon a hippo disembowling my gran's rectum he gave me the idea of a nose being walked...how stupid is that. So i got out my foldable tent megaphone and called my solicitor for no reason . then i saw an unusual thing it was a donkey from outer space wearing a kilt this immediatly gave me the thought of S.o.C.k, just after i was pressured into stealing a dragon from the post man next door he then entered me into the book of kindness for not commiting the crime. Later i went to see BEnjo and Dartin to speak to the wizard of oz he told me to go to the witches palace to suck the right testicle of a racoon. Then i went to get myself a life as a tramp in a sauna. That is all. Thank you for your time.		Percy
Scarface Betty		My car's name is Betty, and I noticed a scratch on it...a huge scratch on the side. So I named her Scarface Betty and my band liked it.		Caleb
Scarless		Scarless, as in unscathed and untouched.		Cody
The Scarlet Letters		It would be a girl band named after the awesome book by Nathaniel Hawthorne, "The Scarlet Letter."		Miki Koishikawa
Scarlet Senses		Well, I simply lóved the word "scarlet". It has so much feeling and mystic in it, I really wanted it in our band name. With the added "Senses" it sounded really sweet and feminine. The name was just great, the band itself didn't work out that fine.		Grapjas
Scarlet Tear		You could also tweak it some like maybe Scarlet Tears (note the "s" lol) or...Velvet Tears?...dunno...i just thought the concept of crying tears of blood was kinda cool and since blood is red and scarlet means red i put two and two together =P...also you could make some damn cool album coverart with a name like that :D		Ross
Scarlet Vomit Chunks		It came from TV show "It Only Hurts When I Laugh" as a fake name for Defy All Odds, a rap metal band whose lead singer was clocked by the guitarist during a show (which was on the show)		JeReMy
Scarleta		See notes for 'This Scarlet Prison'. A derivative.		Tangerine Innuendo
Scarlette Empire		My friends and I wanted to start a band. I was telling them that I had a dream that everything was red. Then we came up with Red City, then Scarlette City then Scarlette Empire.		Els
Scarlette Priest		I'm showing my age here, but there's a girl at my daughter's preschool called Scarlette Priest - all girl heavy metal band or what?		Howard Kimber
Scarred and Scared		Because it fits right in there with this genre. And my exboyfriend scarred me and he gets scarier every day, in a screwed up sense...		taste this
Scarred Babydolls		I picture this band as a group of goth chicks playing music like Jack Off Jill or Rasputina.		Mistress Onixx
Scars Heal In Time		I just thought of it one day. It sounds pretty cool. Plus its the initials of a cuss word.		Weldon
Scars Of Lies		I just thoguth of it and sometimes lies can scar people. Plus it sounded really cool like my name... Pogo Shoe		Pogo Shoe
Schadenfreude		It's on the Avenue Q soundtrack...if you listen to the song they tell you that Schadenfreude (sha-den-froy-da) means "happiness at the misfortune of others". Good name for a punk or heavy metal band?		Marshie the Martian
Schaupen		I got a forwarded e-mail with this misspelling of Chopin...maybe they could tour with Baytovin.		Boy Howdy
Schizophrenic Metalloids		My chemistry professor said in class that metalloids are schizophrenic because they can behave as metals or nonmetals. I thought "Wow, that would be a terrific name for a metal band."		Marissa
Schlitterbon		it's german for slippery road... just sounds cool		john
Schlomo & The Electric Genitals		This was my first band's name. We were headed up by a "person of Jewish faith - Schlomo" and the rest of us (a co-ed group) were just blasting away through our instruments via all of the electricity we were using up.		FrozenFish
Schnell		It's German for fast. Good for a thrash metal band I guess.		Coolio
Schnell Fish		My friend told me schnell means fast, and this band name sounds like shellfish. A fast shellfish		wonka bar
School Yard Reception		Where I live is in a basin not a valley a basin moutains all around. You cant hear any other radio station outside of it even this close to Oklahoma. Well my mp3 player gets radio too. I bring it to school to listen to at break. You can't get hear anything except the sports network. I call it the school yard reception factor and thought it would be a wicked awesome name for a band of any genre. Just a suggestion.		Amy Valentine
Schporkers United/Anonymous		My friend is obsessed with 'sporks', but one day he got a (what he called shork {a cross between a fork and a shovel}) from the canteen. We were board so we made up a company for distributing shorks and sporks. When you combine spork and shork, it makes shpork. But it looks better when spelt Schpork.		Pathogens101
Schroeder Van Pelt		We don't know Schroeder's full name, so his "married" name may be this		Whoopi Goldberg Cushion
Schroedinger's Mice		Schroedinger's Cat is a famous example of the Uncertainty Principle, and I thought this name sounded cool. It's geeky, I know.		Sylvia Viridian

Scrambled Light Bulbs		Probably just a band of weirdos with equally weird songs.		IHaveNoBrain

ScreamYourself Dry		Everyone knows when you sing, your mouth dries out; and you get dehydrated. Love it.		Niall Biddiscombe
Screeching White Ramona		Could be just any band, as long as nobody in the group is named Ramona or is screeching or white. Maybe an Asian soul cover band. It would be like the Thompson Twins. There were three of them and they weren't twins. Why Screeching White Ramona? I know somebody who I secretly nicknamed that.		geojones
Screen-Doored Submarine		kind of funny bc it wouldn't work [Ed.'s note: From the Rich Mullins' song "Screen Door".]		matt
ScreenSavior		I don't know, but it sounds cool. Screensavor sounds neat as well.		Cessi

Scrotie McBoogerballs		It's from South Park, and would do well for a band that's trying to be as gross and disgusting as possible.		IHaveNoBrain
Scrumdidllyumtious		It always makes me think of Ned Flanders from The Simpsons. Not a bad name, for a gay group. But I'm gonna put it up for grabs!		Brie
Scrumptious Salt Licks		Dogs would lick the limestone because it tasted like salt. Hence the salt licks. And "scrumptious" because of Willie Wonka or "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang"..		Hoosier
Scrumptrillescent Sanction		Will Ferrell made up the word "scrumptrillescent" on an SNL sketch, which is the combination of three or four words. It totally stuck and 'sanction' was the icing on the cake.		Kelsea

Scummy Apples		Okay, try and follow. It's from part of a dream I had. In this part, I was in a men's restroom, and the stalls had a brand name on their doors (like 'Crown Restrooms' porta-potties have their name on the front). Anyway, they were "Scummy Apples" brand, and they were pretty grungy. PLEASE don't ask me where my brain came up with the name. I just thought it sounded exactly like the kind of name a punk-rock band would have. (After all, there's already Rancid and Saliva.)		Jonathan S.
Scurry Face		My friend said on the internet that she needed makeup because [her face] looked "scurry".		Junior
Scuzzbucket And The Fuzz Monkey All-Stars		Perfect name for a punk/ska cover band of a cover band, because of all the Z's.		o-/-<
