Making fun of music, one song at a time. Since the year 2000.
Check out the two amIright misheard lyrics books including one book devoted to misheard lyrics of the 1980s.
Names -> Cool Band Names -> T, Page 4
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: | ||
| Tinitus Generation | our music is and always will be loud, and aint gonna change. We just kinda came up with it, u no, it kinda fits how we play. (if you no what i mean, i no i dont). incase you don't no, tinitus is when you get a constant ringing in your ear from listening to loud music, ect. | Dave!!! (davebanks101@hotmail.com) | ||
| Tinkerbell's Last Hope | It's from a quote on Dawson's Creek "Clap hard Dawson, you might be Tinkerbell's last hope" | Deathawk | ||
| Tinted Red | This is a ok emo/punk band name. My band was desperate for a band name cause we had a gig coming. I was sitting at a family reunion and saw a car drive by with really tinted windows, then my cousin came up wearing all red. It just kinda clicked, but my band didnt like it so... hope it helps someone | Syrix Punk | ||
| The Tints | Kinda sounds like a 50s or 60s band. Well, we'll never know.. | Ian | ||
| Tiny Blisters | Listening to "Helter Skelter" when John yells out. " I got blisters on my fingers", so I thought it sounds cool for a band name. | George | ||
| Tiny Cheeses For My Dashboard | My wife misheard me say, jokingly, that I wanted to get a tiny Jesus for my car's dashboard. It's been a joke for years. Camembert, gouda, etc... lined up and ready to see the world through. | Chuck Fensch | ||
| Tiny Giny | From a King of Queens episode referring to a woman who was "small down there". Definitely a metal band from LA. | Stace | ||
| Tip Top Tummy | My drummer had a bad ass stomach ache when we were trying to come up with a name, so I was like, dude you need a tip top tummy | Steverino Estabrook | ||
| Tipaklong - aBsciSsa | It's a Filipino term for 'grasshopper'. | c@rL | ||
| The Tipsy Vicars | It's nicely incongruous. | Spandau Ballet (Snigger) | ||
| Tire Swing Hobos | When I was a little kid my older brother tried to see how fast he could make me spin on a tire swing. He made me go so fast all I could see was a white light and the only thought in my head was "at least i didnt die a hobo" | Sean | ||
| Tireiron | Has to be the best name for a straightedge hXc band(if you know what that is). You'd be the coolest band at the firestorm(to purify!). | ebm | ||
| The Titmice | Since there are numerous bird names for bands, including The Larks, The Sandpipers, The Flamingos, and The Eagles, here's another bird name I thought I'd suggest! | D. Melody Dole, MD | ||
| Titus F | a derivative of elephantitus | twigg | ||
| Tiznow | One time my friend and I were at Fright Fest at Six Flags. She used to be scared of all of the costumes, and it was a cold night. She saw one of the creatures and she ran and hid. I said "It's okay, it's not there now." She looked and she was shivering and she said "Ittiznow!" I thought it would be a fun name for a band. Plus, some people in the olden days pronounced things funky to sound proper. I thought it would be an odd name for a band. | {Destructive Katy} | ||
| Tminus5 | All "five" of us love the name. I came up with the name watching a space shuttle blast off, in Tminus5 seconds...hence the name. | Paul | ||
| TMMoonie | I was watching my screensaver that was really outdated (erm, it said "Moonie" and I'm a TMM fanatic now), and came up with this. | Douglas Bucksworth aka D.B. | ||
| To Be Announced | cause then the paper Ad will say Tuesday 9:30 at New Brooklyn Tavern, To Be Announced, then people will be like what the Hell...Then once you get famous, everytime someone says TBA people will be like hey, To Be Announced is playing...just a thought | Brandon | ||
| To Be Confirmed | the flyers at my local venue always have this all over them - think of the publicity! | james from 'the flame' | ||
| To this I say to you... | I think its pretty cool because its catchy and is right for a band that "tells it like it is." I picture an emo band with this name just because it sounds as if you were in the middle of writing a love note. | Chokex | ||
| To What Extent | I got pissed at my teacher one day and she said why dont you like this class. Name to an extent why you dont like me! So I said TO WHAT EXTENT | jrw | ||
| The Toad Elevating Moment | Straight from Monty Python's Flying Circus. Would be great for dance, rock or alternative. | WildLegend | ||
| Toadstool Philosophy | They would have social messages encripted in their lyrics, and ever see that statue "The Thinker" of that naked guy sitting down in heavy thought well he was probably the guy that gave those little mushrooms the name toadstool, because they were shaped like the little toad turds he had seen in biology class. | badboybear | ||
| Toast | A play on the band Bread. Also a play on the band Cake, and since Cake actually did a cover of a song by Bread. Well, that settles that right there. Destiny people | Chris | ||
| Toasted Lemmings | I was watchin a documentary on our suicidal furry friends... then i started playin computer games. Sounds cool. | Drakona | ||
| Toasted Lemmings | when I was playing the game, lemmings, I blew one of them up purposefully. ha, my weapon of mass destruction! | emily strange | ||
| Toaster Cases | Like basket cases, but hotter. | Shippy Mandy | ||
| The Toaster Fairies | i just like the sound of it. I was sitting around eating cheetoes and watching cartoon network when ed, edd, and eddy came on and they were talking about toasters and faires. | matt tennyson | ||
| Toasterknive | I thought of it after seeing a picture of someone sticking a knife in the toaster | Lefty Lucy | ||
| Toby bin Laden | We are talking about reincarnation in social studies class, and someone said that if Osama bin Laden was reborn as his son, he would name him Toby. | Junior | ||
| Tod and The Pacemakers | Me and a buddy were thinking of band names and We look over at our 7th grade teacher and said he said Tod and The Pacemakers. | DJ Playboy | ||
| Tod's Browning | Both his current condition and a tribute to the director of the original 1931 Dracula movie. Could be paired with "Mexican Dracula". | Tod Browning | ||
| Todd Quigley and the Raging Squirrels | Ever been sized up by an angry squirrel? Let me assure you, the experience is terrifying. | M.E. | ||
| Toe Jam | Many know this as an unsuitable subject for dinner table conversations. However, it is also a pun of the band name "Pearl Jam" and a reference to jamming. | Renard | ||
| Toe Jam | I came up with it when my friend was at my house and his toe nails were really long and had a ton of dirt under them. So I told him to clean the toe jam out from underneath his toe nails. I think it would be a good name for a punk rock band. | Devin Potts | ||
| Toe Truck | one time someone said something abt a tow truck i was not thinkg and like wtf? cuz i thought of toes, not tow, yeah im messed up like that. | stephis | ||
| Toetips | Have you ever wondered why there's such a word as "fingertips" but no such word as "toetips"? | D. Melody Dole, MD | ||
| Tofu, Blenders, and Germany | I was sick and watching TV and this show came on. It was about tofu, blenders, and Germany. I decided if I was ever going to be in a band, that's what I'd name it. | Shannon | ||
| Together Seperately | I just thought of it, it sounds cool. I thought of it because of the Christian Band my dad loves. | Jordan | ||
| Tohu Vavohu | It means "chaos" in Hebrew. Sounds like a cool name for a metal band. | Kobi Melamed | ||
| The Toilet Ate My Guitar | Haha I found this name on a webpage and I thought it was so hilarious. This name is good for a Rock\Metal band! | You | ||
| Toilet Envy | Just thought about it. | Donald McRonald | ||
| Toilet Glamour | The beautiful and the ugly make the genius. | suicide_glamour | ||
| The Toilet Surfers | I suggested it for my band and it got shot down like a white dude in the ghetto. But anyway, i think its just an awesome name. | Special K | ||
| Tokyo Monster Control | Would've been better in the '80's. That's when we (a group of college students working in a stuffy law firm's filing room) took this as our group persona. Someone said it's in some Godzilla movie, though I've never had the urge to confirm it. Probably only clever to us. | Daniel | ||
| Tom Bradley and Horizon Wireless | My aunt's ex-husband used to call NFL player Tom Brady and wireless provider Verizon Wireless "Tom Bradley" and "Horizon", respectively | JeReMy | ||
| Tom Braider | Actually, it's not that cool, but everytime I play Tomb Raider this pops into my head. | Cel-Chan | ||
| Tom Ram | Marmot backwards. | Brionna Secret | ||
| Tomahawk | it's cool to be heard. its actual meaning is 'war axe' . i'm planning 4 ma band who name will be tomahawk!!!!!!!! | tj | ||

| Toned F | Say it fast... pretty funny for a band! | Paul | ||
| Tongue Sandwich Tokyo | Part of a joke from Mystery Science Theater 3000. | GlamRockNinjaLord | ||
| TongueStun | cool name for a heavy metal band- the band leaves you speechless- also tungsten is the metal in tap & die sets, the metal that cuts other metal so like this band's metal would be harder than other metal bands. | Uncle Bad | ||
| Tonrar | means devil in the eskimo language | Ryan | ||
| The Tony Danza Extravaganza | This was the name of one of my cover bands, because he sucks, and so did our cover band. If you want at least one curious fan, I urge you to use this name! | Bryan | ||
| Tony Slick & the Menage a Trois | I was laughing about sleazy businessmen and I felt 'Tony Slick' would be a funny name for one. Then I thought about the name of a band Tony Slick might have. And there you go. | Mustang Dave | ||
| Too Darn Bad | Both why it's cool and how I came up with it can be answered in the exact same way; I was thinking how funny it would be if someone said, "Who are these guys? I don't like their music at all!", and got the response, "Oh, that's Too Darn Bad." | N00Ki3 | ||
| Too Fast | I was speeding one day, went past a cop (Which I also am one) and my friend said Too Fast. I got pulled over, and told him "Too Fast, huh" and he said, "You Think" I got out of it being a cop, but havent heard the last of "Too Fast" and we laugh every time. Sound Cool. Or its what a girl tells you when you advance on them "Too Fast, Slow Down" | Deano | ||

| Too Much Mayo | Joseph | |||
| Too Much Oompa | Heh, well, me and my friend were walking up to K-Mart when we saw a really...well...large lady, and out of nowhere I burst out "Haha, looks like there's too much Oompa in her Loompa..." After a half-second pause we started bursting out laughing......<_< I guess you had to have been there. =) | Waffle | ||
| Tooslick AKA White Chocolate | tooslick is my nick name cuz i do stuff behind teachers backs and they say im slick. White Chocolate is my rap name cuz i act black and im white..if ne of u take ill mes u up | stephen aka tooslick aka white chocolate | ||
| Tootie and the Fax | One day, I was watching The Facts of Life. Then I got a phone call but the only thing I could hear on the other end was that annoying fax sound. Five minutes later, I produced a rather neat band name. | indierckr770 | ||

| Top Rock'rs | A name I had made up simply because everyone wants to be on top. | NICKI | ||
| Topspot | I was looking at palindromes with my friend. We thought it would be a good band name brcause it's the same spelled backwards. | J.B. | ||

| Torso Murder Hunt | I was watching a show about a railroad killer that traveled the rails killing people and only left their torsos behind. | Bizzy | ||
| Tortured Genius | Some historical figures such as Van Gogh, Einstein or some songwriters have been described in this manner, meaning that their fame was more harmful than good. Such is this band of college grads who'd rather rock than read. | cool | ||
| The Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs | Of course, this is the theme to T.V.'s "Frasier". But it also makes a cool name for an amateur garage band. | people | ||
| Total Confusion | IMe and my fellow band members were a little confused we first said Shattered,then we didn't like that name that much so then we said how about THE CONFUSED,then after a while we found a name. How about Total Confusion? | Greg | ||

| Totally Not a Band | It's very funny! | Natalie Benson | ||
| Touching Gratitude | I was reading an article on the Black Eyed Peas in Q magazine. One of the members used the term Touching Gratitude. I said it out loud, and seemed an alright band name. | bhalla | ||
| Toulouse Cruise | It's actually the name of my duo... when you have a few too many to drink, you can call it Two Loose Screws... (oddly enough, there is a canal cruise service in Toulouse, France, but I doubt that they will give me problems about copywrites) | Brian daBiker | ||
| Toungless Hamsters | i was over my friends house and she has a hamster and i was looking at the hamster and it was licking the bars and so i said "look at his tounge!" and then this girl jillian was like "Hamsters don't have tounges" and so everytime i see the hamster i always call it the toungless hamster and well that is how i got the nam. it might suck but o well | Aryka | ||
| Tourette's Squirrel | It's from a video from a YouTuber named FLuffeeTalks (the capital L is intentional). | JeReMy | ||
| The Tourettes | This is a great name for an obnoxious punk band that screams a whole lot (example: Leftover Crack). | Nicholas | ||
| The Touring Machine | Alan Touring created the computer and won world war II and it sounds like the band is always on tour. | Dan H. | ||
| Tournament of Lies | This is a line from the REM song "It's the End of the World", and I think it would make a great band name. | Q | ||
| Toxamonic Sushi | Just came to me but it sounds so cool | Slushie | ||
| Toxemia | means blood poison(no...really) | samantha | ||
| Toxic Barf and the Beer Buckets | Something from Final Fantasy 7 and something I saw here. These guys would probably play at sleazy bars. | IHaveNoBrain | ||
| Toxic Boss | It's very cool for a metal band! | Matt | ||
| Toxic Coffee | Another one my chem professor inspired: she told us that decaffeinated coffee used to have the caffeine removed from it with toxic chemicals. I actually have written in my notes, "Toxic Coffee= good band name." | Marissa | ||
| Toxic Crayons | When I was in seventh grade, heard it on the evening news, because apparently there were some toxic crayons that kids were eating. | Vikas | ||
| Toxic Fecal Spiders | Unfortunately, there ARE such creatures! My friend Brandi was in Pakistan, and she was unable to use the "bathroom" due to toxic fecal spiders. Or maybe they were in Thailand. But still. | Amber Hunnewell | ||
| Toxic Kisses | Sounds like a really good female band name | Kawaii_Rae | ||
| Toxic Lip Gloss | This could be the name of some girl punk band. | Zelda | ||
| Toxic Lipz | You know you've staired at someones lips and thought "I'll probaly die if I kiss them..." | Kawaii_Rae | ||
| Toxic Poniard | (It's pronouced 'pon-yerd'. It's like a fancy word for dagger.) I just flipped to a random page in the dictionary and it was poniard and toxic. My band used to have it. But we decided it sounded more of like a hard/heavy metal band. We're more of a rock/metal. | sean | ||
| Toxic Shock Syndrome | It's cool for an all-girl group, for obvious reasons. Plus, people could chant "T.S.S." at the concerts. | Cap'n Cannonbait McDread |
