    Lightbulb Band Names ( titles )

    I find that finding a name to name your band THE hardest thing to do with your band. My aspect of a band is Its not the name that describes a band its the music. But some other wise!

    What do you think, theres been alot of aspect to if my bands name suits us at all!.. Weve talked about changing it, But you grow attatched I feel!!

    What would you call the band Cyanide rather than what its name is the now??

    It is a difficult thing to do, I agree.
    Try to think of things related to other parts of your lives. Is there a film or a tv show the whole band like? Choose a character name from that. Does your favourite band have a song title that you think would make a great band name?
    Think of nicknames your band might have had in the past, or present for that matter. I think a band name should represent the band in someway but that's just my opinions. Some people think a name's just a name.
    It's ALWAYS a tough one though!!!

    Do a 'pixies' and flick through the dictionary and plant your finger down anywhere. The word your finger lands on is your new name. For example the pixies done this and done them not bad :P

    I just done it and got 'The eclipses'

    Just call yourselves 'The Special Guests'

    I did it a few years ago for a battle of the bands in which we were on stage first and when we didnt win everybody thought it was just because we were special guests as is the norm now at the battle of the bands. Does that make sense or am i rambling on a bit?
