Take one from the first, one from the second, one from the third.


Red Hot screaming Cheetahs
Dumb Flying Psychos
Little fighting nurses
Big cheating Iguanas


There you go, you have 4 times 4 times 4 =64 names

Making up words all together is cool , and so is using words from different langauges.
I'm sure we've had this discusion before...

Speaking of names, do any of you use stage names/nicknames like Slash or Noodles etc? I often think Chacron would make a cool stage name but if anyone ever found out where I got it from in the first place i would be called a sad bastard forever.....lol

I can't figure a name to suggest.
I use kingdavid coz when I asked my mom where my name came from,she told me it was kingdavid of the bible;the one who beat goliath.
But if/when I record,that's the name I'll use.I've even thought of a name for me first album;
The African King.:)

nah man, you need a good band, something that is good and completlty original, a one name, band name.
Think of something from your heart man, that's where the good names come from.

I for myself have a band name, and its called "Junkyard" hopefully i'll get somewhere with it.

Just dont steal that name.

you could always pick up a medical dictionary and look through that... heheh,
You could do the cringe worthy act of using puns for a name...
Foo Cough (sounds like a scots man saying F- off!)
Foo King Hell (sould like a scots mans saying F_ing HEll!)

You could also take song names of band names, Like "Junkyard" wich was written by Nirvana ;), "Downer" again a nirvana song, "radio head" a talking heads song,
Or you could steal film titles like "Black Sabath" and "they might be gaints" did.
