Names -> Cool Band Names -> S, 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.

| The Search Party of the Mysterious Dr. Tongue | Inspired by a ficitional B-grade horror actor Walter Tobias, Jr. (Eugene Levy) from SCTV. He was co-host with Floyd the Vampire, and Floyd had "dogged" Walter's film "The Search For the Mysterious Dr. Tongue". The film "clip" had Walter shouting "Dr. Tongue! Dr. Tongue!" in a cave." Leaves you wanting for more SCTV, and the band could open for another SCTV inspired fake band "The Recess Monkeys". | funny | ||
| Searching For Amaranth | Amaranth is said to cure broken hearts. Can anybody say 'emo'? | Ravenshadow | ||

| Seatbelt | It's plain but sounds cool | wonka bar | ||
| Second Door On The Right | I just think that directions given by someone make for a cool name. | Jimbolia | ||
| Second Hand Buzz | This friend and I were talking about somehow getting a second-hand buzz from dope smokers or something and I thought that would be a cool name - especially for a cover band. | Clark | ||
| Second Hand Romance | It's pretty rad because it sort of makes fun of all the dumb emo bands, like My Chemical Romance and all that pish-posh. | Alex | ||
| Second Hand Sex | my drummer splurted this out after i said i would quit second hand smoking. i think it is pretty self explanitory. | forfeti | ||
| SeconD HanD SmokE | I thought of it when i heard on the tv about how second hand smoke is as bad as smoking regulary soo........ i thought it would be a cool band name | billy bob | ||
| Second Hand Soul | I thought of this name when I wanted to change my life around to music. Before my life was school work. Maths, english, science etc. But now I have listened to the greats of music and it's like my second life! | Amy | ||
| The Second Thought | I was just thinking about going out for pizza, but then I realized I lived two doors down from In-N-Out. So, I kind of muttered, "On second thought, and realized it sounded really cool. | Jc Foster | ||
| Secondary Extinction | My friends and I were thinking how when we eventually were famous for music, it would be like an extinction of all other genres. Gerald (a friend) was all like: "Like, dinosaurs. Oh! Secondary Extinction!" Rocks but we didn't use it. | Sly | ||
| Secondhand Heroes | It a lyric from a Deep Purple song. | tom | ||
| Secret Alien Language | A band of Anne Heche fans. Also fitting could be "Partly Gay". | The Desert of the Real | ||
| Secret Reviler | The opposite of "secret admirer". Sounds like a thrash metal band? | RevengeFromMars YouTube | ||

| Sector 7G | It's the area of the neuclear plant where Homer Simpson works. | Moe | ||
| The Sects | This one could mean something very naughty and yet at the same time be very innocent. So if you ever get in trouble you could always have backup. "Not that Sex" | Whitty | ||
| Securidad Primero | 'Safety first' in Spanish. Man it's kicka**. | Jen | ||
| See Four | C4=see four | zack | ||
| See My Dinosaur | My mate asked me if I wanted see his dinosaur which I didn't | beardangel555 | ||
| See the Thunder | well, if you want to be a stupid. you know, because thunder is audible... | stevo | ||
| Seeing Eye Frog | It comes from 'seeing-eye dog'. It rocks! | Emma | ||
| The Seeker | I've always been fantasizing about band names, and The Seeker came up into my mind. It's meaningless, has no cool story behind it, but that's exactly the point, making it pretty funny. Also, it reminds an RPG monster. It would fit a Prog Rock band, making it even more ironic the senselessness of the title. | Sir Mustapha | ||
| Seeking Silence | It's kinda like you're in so much noise, you just want some silence. | danny | ||
| Seeson Sallt | um its awsome bacause, i was sittin on my porch with my home dog justin, and i saw this bottle or lawry's season salt!, but seeson sallt is a better way to spell it | timmy decoda | ||
| sehctib | it spells Bitches backwards | F Snoop D | ||
| Seize the Daze | Much like "seize the day" but apparently involving pot. | RevengeFromMars YouTube | ||
| Selected Apparatus | It's the name of a junkyard and I thought it was pretty cool. Its outside of Roseburg Oregon. Its the name of my band. And Social Outcasts too...another one of my bands. Look for us! | someone unimportant | ||
| Selective Hearing | Selective hearing is when you tune out other sounds and try to listen to one at a time. I thought how appropriate for a band because people listen to the type of music they want to listen to. The "select" want they want to "hear" get it? | Ariana | ||
| Selective Memory | I forgot how I got this name. | Blackie Boston | ||
| Self Deification | Boss said this to me because I called myself an idiot....He meant self destruction or something but instead he said this.......Which means bringing yourself up to a god basically....quite cool. | Mike | ||
| Self Destructive Mind | It's kinda like the mind hurting itself (like when you take drugs). | Ezra | ||
| Self Infliction | I always used to damage my body as a teen. it just seemed good | dutchie#1 | ||
| Self Service | I was in the car and we went past a gas station and it said self service and I just thought it was really cool! | Stwa Bewwy | ||
| Self-Helping Gurus | Just came to me one day. Sounds like the name of a ska band. Was originally Self-Respecting Gurus, but this title makes a little more sense and could even be given a sexual connotation. *wink* | Lev007 | ||
| Self-Respecting Gurus | This is in correlation to the band name I came up with: No Self Respect. This new one sounds like something a ska band would call themselves. I hate ska, but the name would be perfect. | Lev007 | ||
| Self-Titled | This name will be cool if the band are about making a name for themselves. | sathiyyah | ||
| Self-Titled | I figured this could make a decent name for a band, first of all. It just came from constantly hearing DJs utter the words, "From their self-titled album...", and the fact that the title of the band's self-titled album would actually be 'Self-Titled'. Anyway, blame a bad sense of humor and too much spare time. | No Originality | ||
| Selfish Capers | Instead of NFL offensive lineman Selvish Capers | JeReMy | ||
| SelfStorage | I like the sound of it. It'll work well for a punk or hardcore band. Saw it on a sign. | Rembrandt Q. Einstein | ||
| Sellotape | a british TM for a brand of tape. Sounds sticky. | Peter | ||
| The Sellout Posers | i think its awesome cuz alot of ppl in the music business or fans of it are obsessed with calling people sellouts or posers so its a cool sarcastic name to all the critics ;) | stefani | ||
| The Sellouts | I decided that is I don't become a successful social studies teacher, or a pro skateboarder, I will start a band and call it the sellouts. Why? Because a lot of bands are sellouts, so why not start a band that makes fun of sellouts? Believe me, It'll be hot. | Ashley | ||
| Semi-Liquid Paster | It's funny and it sounds cool. A co-worker saw the name, made a sticker, and put it on my work computer. | Will | ||
| Semi-Violet Sky | It was an expression I used while writing... that's all. | Alex | ||
| Semihemidemisemiquavors | Because everyone would say "What?" when you mentioned the name, and that would bring atention to the band. | quavor1 | ||
| Send In The Clownfishes | I just read it on inthe00s, also from the founder of amiright. It's a forum to announce birthdays of the site's members. Also a neat party band. | Mr. Oblivious | ||
| Seneca Eclipse | The real name would be...Seneca ::pause:: Eclipse...but for reasons that people would screw up that name, we'll just scrunch them together. The name came up about 10 years ago, during a period in my life when I only drank juice made by the Seneca Juice company. I was sitting outside during a lunar movement and someone called. When they asked what I was doing...I just said, "Seneca.....Eclipse" and they instantly knew what I was talking about.... Voila! a band name. | Demon | ||
| Senocular Bandicoot | We were trying to come up with a band name so we looked online at a list of cool words. We found senocular (which means six eyed) and bandicoot (a long nosed rodent). So basically, its a long nosed rat with six eyes. I even made a picture from drawing six eyes on a picture of a bandicoot. Although it did not end up being our final band name, I think it's still cool. | Smallz | ||
| Senor Anonymous | Bob and Tom, nationally syndicated shock jocks from Indianapolis, played a news clip featuring an explosion and a shocked Hispanic man being interviewed. He was shouting stuff like: "I saw the flames go up...." and "Look at all these CARS! They're all messed up!" When Bob and Tom decided to put this snippet on one of their charity albums, they indentified the man as Senor Anonymous. | Jonathan C. | ||
| Sense of Right Alliance | It's a weird bootleg toy from China that combines many characters that have no business being together. | JeReMy | ||
| Sensele$$ | It's cool | Gary S. | ||
| The Sensimillas | Translation: "without seeds"...but stoners know what it refers to. | Mike the Kike | ||
| Sentimental Trash | My friends and I have stuff that is trash, but it is sentimental so we keep it any way. A good single for the band could be, "Don't Throw It All Away". | Glory | ||
| Separation Street | A real street in Melbourne. Sort of sounds like Fascination Street (Teh Cure). | Jesus | ||
| Seperated From Society | Good name for an anti·social type band. At school thats what they call the anti·social type kids, Seperaated from Society. I think it just sounds cool. | Delaware Defect | ||
| Sephiroth | This name was cool because I was playing "Final Fantasy" and Sephiroth showed up. So I googled it and found out that it is the ten attributes of God. Pretty cool huh? | Dude person | ||
| Sephiroth | This name was cool because I was playing "Final Fantasy" and Sephiroth showed up. So I googled it and found out that it is the ten attributes of God. Pretty cool huh? | Dude person | ||
| Sephiroth and the Space-Age Swamis | Final Fantasty 7 is cool, Sephiroth is cool and swamis are funny. | IHaveNoBrain | ||
| Sephram Kozak | Sounds so cool, just randomley came up with it. | 666 Child | ||
| Seppuku | ritual suicide, need i say more? a great deathgrind band name. | \m/att | ||
| September Bailey | A girl I know took one of those online surveys where you have to see what your name would be if you combined your birth month and pet. And I thought this was perfect, just sounds quite good. | Alex | ||
| September Hogs | Good name for a band of full of old rockers. | Pablo Impractica | ||
| September Is Over | It's a play on Green Day's song "Wake Me Up When September Ends". | saverock'n'roll@saverock'n'roll.org | ||
| September Skizes | I like it because me and a friend were writing songs one night in September. We needed a band name, so we thought about a song we (I) wrote called " Touch the Sky". Soon after that, September skizes came out. | caleb mooneyham | ||
| Sequin Eater | A.Kellett | |||
| Sequinox | It's a portmanteau word combining "sequin" with "equinox". Or it might be perceived as "Sequin Ox". If the latter interpretation is pursued, several members might wear sequins, and one or more might wear ox horns. | D. Melody Dole, MD | ||
| Seraf Tisnart | it sounds arabic but it's actually Transit Fares spelled backwards this is how i came up with it i was sitting in a bus and i saw the words transit and fares but backwards and i said that could be a cool band name for www.amiright.com. | hamp | ||
| Seraphs | It is the six-winged gaurdian of the throne of God. What could be cooler? | Foster | ||
| serenity | i was looking through the dictionary for my english homework, and i just found the word serenity. it has been my favourite word ever since, and i just think that it would sound totally wicked as a name for a band. By the way, it means tranquillity!!! | sandie | ||
| Serpent Son | its a line in "thank you for the venom" by my chemical romance. they rock! | Amber | ||
| Server Donations | We had a volunteer thing for Masquers Club and everyone else had fancy tip jars for themselves...well no one had thought of us while buying these jars so we got stuck with a coffee can. With that can we made a label. We got masking tape and wrote "Server Donations" because we were serving food. We thought it sounded like it would've been one of the local bands in our area. Note: Devolution is almost a band name. I think it's way too close to De-evolution to be considerent original. Devo was the ultimate band... | Dana | ||
| Sesame Street Prostitutes | Can you imagine Big Bird or Oscar being arrested for soliciting with hookers? I can, and so can these oversexed 'pervs'. | kid | ||
| Seven Against Thebes | I was sitting on the beach reading Dante's Inferno, and there was some line about 'the seven against Thebes', who were currently residing in one of the levels of Hell. It was revealed in the footnotes that this referred to seven kings of yore who waged war against the ancient city of Thebes. That phrase has really stuck with me; even if there were only four or five members in the band, I think this would be a good name for a rock group that reads the classics...it has a slightly mysterious yet rebellious ring to it. | Jimmy's Dreamgirl | ||
| Seven Against Thebes | A spirit name phosphorescence descended upon me in my sleep and gave me the idea. | Bob Dyllan | ||
| Seven Against Thebes | I was reading Dante's Inferno on the beach and I came to a section that referred to seven ancient kings being punished for their sins. Thoroughly mystified, I checked the footnotes in the back and it referenced a brief war of seven kings against the ancient city of Thebes. It sounded so cool that I couldn't let it go and whenever I'm in one of those "If you had a band, what would you name it?" conversations, I can't resist adding this one. | Alicia | ||
| Seven Ate Nine | My friend made a joke....Why was six afraid of seven? Because seven 8 nine. I just changed the number 8 into "ate". [Ed.'s note: It was on a car commercial.] | Matt | ||
| The Seven Belles Of Shit | It came to me one day like things do sometimes. Most I forget, but I remembered this one because it sounded so good especially for a girl band I think | Dave Cumming | ||
| Seven Car Pile-Up | If you have seen the show Scrubs, you will know that is the origin of this name. It is cool. | Michael | ||
| Seven Degrees of Kevin Bacon | It's a game that connects Kevin Bacon to anyone else in Hollywood because he's been in so many movies and I have ADHD so that's what it feels like in my head at all times | dayna | ||
| Seven Eight Don't | I saw this on reddit | bread | ||
| Seven Pillars of Wisdom's House | Like how jars of clay got their name. The verse is taken from Proverbs 9:1. I was looking for something in the bible, since that's what jar's did anyway. And it sounds hopelessly cool might I add! For short, just 7Pillars. | jonnio | ||
| Seven Sins | It first came to mind because there are seven of us in the band and I wanted to use the word sin. | Jake | ||
| Seven Story Kids | It is cool because my friends and I were talking and someone just said. They had seven stories, and so we call our new club "The Seven Story Kids". | theodore | ||
| Seven Story Ruin | In ancient Rome their were many ruins, so we thought of seven story ruin. | jhosuknow | ||
| Seven Story World | Cuse there 7 parts to life, Baby, kid, teen, young adult, mid-adult, old, and then really old, liek the old when i cant control yuor S*** and u need OOPHS I CRAPED MY PANTS | the atticus bird | ||
| Seventh Rock | I think it would be funny because well, since Earth is spoken as the third rock from the sun, I was thinking of what Uranus would be, since, Uranus is just funny. It's the seventh rock from the sun and that's why my band is named after Uranus. | Lindsey | ||
| Severed Blender Hands | It's what would happen if you put your hand in a blender... | JR | ||
| Severed Limb | I lost my arm in a steel cutting machine, and the doctor said my limb was severed and it'll never be able to be replaced. I would type more but i only have one f***ing hand. | Chris Walker | ||
| Seweal | My daughter made it up. How would you pronounce it? (Editor's note: So-wheel?) | Grate Job | ||
| The Sewer Sharks | And you thought alligators down there was scary. (and yes, I did base this on the crappy Sega CD FMV game.) | something clever | ||
| Sewing Machine | Misread Candi's "Sweet Medicine" submission and thought it said "Sewing Machine". | K.Y.L.E | ||
| Sex Gang Children | From a William S Burroughs book. Also like Alien Sex Fiend and My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult | MK | ||
| Sex In The Dust | From the subliiminal message in The Lion King, when Simba falls onto the rock and the dust flies forming the word 'sex'. | shiver | ||
| Sex Offenders On Broadway | A scary thought: sex offenders living near the Great White Way. (Not to glorify sex offenders, but...) | bad |
