So my band has started recording stuff and has played a couple gigs, nothing too big, and we've been mucking around with names, and we've basically come to the agreement of having a "Person and the People" type name, ala Echo And The Bunnymen, Pearl And The Puppets, Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds. I've been screwing around with ideas for a while and I think I'd like the first Person to be one word, and I'm utterly and completely unsure as to the 'and the People' part. I'd like the Person to be something rather, erm, 'cool'. Ancient Viking names accepted. If anyone has any ideas, chuck em this way.
Cheers,
-Blake.

I had a friend in highschool who's band name was "Brutus and the Angry Senators." I think if the Person and the People match then people are more likely to remember it. Or if the names are contrasting. Though their music isn't that great, Echo and the Bunnymen have an awesome band name.

Ray Charles and the Not Sees.

(Seriously though it really depends on what kind of music you play. Got any samples for us?)

One of my bands was called Chesney Christ And The Negative Nancies and I've always liked the idea of the name Billy And The Boggle Bags after an adventure game I got from the Library when I was a kid

A sample of your music would greatly help with brain-storming a band name for ya...

Mister Eraser and the Indelibles?
Vegitmite Q. Haggis and His Assorted Inedibles?
or my personal favorite

Captain Vampyro and his Ineffable Doom Orchestra

All fake band names which have recently served me well

Hammerite · Wed 01/04/2009 21:55:57

I genuinely think Person and the People would be a good name.
