What if the band name you want is taken...

[Frippertronix]

I'd start a thread on KVR.

How would you respond to it (other than like this)?

Oh, put the stripes on the spot, hm? Okay. I'd ask that weirdo Meffy, who is expert at making up improbable combinations of words, and others who indulge in such frippery [ ] to contribute their ideas, then harvest the choicest.

But I'd wait 'til tomorrow to ask Mef (who is headed to bed, being exhausted).

Okay, then it's settled. I'll call the band Meffy.

for instance the band i know are now called "stuffing jeremy inside a small box" this comes from a conversation heard in a gay bar

[The Chase]

www.thisisacryforhelp.com has a porn star name generator. Use that!

[Meffy]

"Meffy" is already taken. But if you wear cute skunk fursuits while performing I'll consider renting the name out.

[Frippertronix]

Try out that automatic Star Wars name generator thing.

Here's what it came up with for me: Scola Bipon

Try it out. Find the chemical names of trademarked over-the-counter drugs. Many interesting things to say there. Here's an example: Nexium is actually esomeprazole. Go to http://www.medicinenet.com/esomeprazole/article.htm and hunt around. You are bound to find a cool band name there. Alter the spelling a bit and there you go.

-Scott

Thing is, I want it to sound cool. I'm actually good at generating my own random gibberish (just read most of my posts ), but I want something sort of...majestic. I actually had the name of a star in mind for my synth band because I wanted something sort of futuristic and slightly mysterious. That name was taken by a band that has a cool looking website already.

I suppose I could just get an astronomy atlas out and look for other names.

Not necessarily. It's just, you know...been there, done that.

*ponder*

Yes. Yes, that would be acceptable. More than acceptable, it'd be superb. Why, I'd even buy the CD!

So: yes.

[Frippertronix]

I think I've found each name I wanted to be taken. First Alter Ego, then Hydra, then Chase, then Noir. I say fcuk it and go anyway

I mean there are 2 sasha's, 2 Dieselboys, like a dozen hydras, already 2 noirs...fine as long as there isnt a person with the same name in your scene.

Are there really a dozen bands named Hydra?

Maybe I'll call it Hydra, then, since my ass would be covered.

[Meffy]

Are there really a dozen bands named Hydra?

Yes, and every time one breaks up two more start.

'Nighty, all. *yawn*
