one time we were shooting emails back and forth trying to name a band and this dude  goes..."you know what? I quit! fuck this!"...In retrospect he lucked out, the band turned out being horrible.

Unicorn is a popular word with the hipster bands... Crystal Unicorns, Unicorn Castles, that kinda thing. I would steer clear.

Funny names seem good on paper, but imagine telling a complete stranger the name of your band... could you do it?

What about a regional name (something associated with the Pac. NW) or a name related to your real life interests (related to fishing lore, etc)

Look at your music collection and you'll notice mostly non funny names. Don't let 2013 and the age of irony/pessimism/sarcasm/it's all been done before/rock and everything else is dead/passion is douchey bs get you down.


Also, yeah, fuck using the word unicorn. Also avoid wolf.

I love one word names, some of the longer band names sound really bad.

WARSNOUT
GUTTER

[liquidsmoke]

Ironworker sounds heavy.

[Chovie D]

even "led zeppelin" was meant to be funny.

I didnt realize "unicorn" had become white belt, my bad....

the band is 2 goofy dudes improvising some pretty crappy music that will probably never be played outside of my garage.
to me, that doesnt suggest and overly serious name..but then again, im horrible at this as youve seen this far so , keep em comin please.
