I like the Moby Cunt suggestion. Maybe umlauts on the u. Umlauts always help.

the poon squander. go with that.


The best names, in my opinion, are simple and not necessarily too description.

Squanderers would be cool.

*edit* If you're gonna mimic Shellac, I'd prefer She'll Ask.

even if we don't change our name, you can still have it. i'd like there to be an army of Gay Babies out there. a fucking army.


Gay Baby (UK).

Look, whenever a band name you want is taken, just add (UK) or (Australia) to the name. No, it doesn't matter that you're not from there.

I was in a side band called "The Fashion" for awhile and we found out that there was a band in Denmark with that name. So we went with "The Fashion (UK)."

HiFi once introduced ourselves on stage as "Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels (UK)."

Try it! It's fun!

Metallica (Australia)
Dream Theater (UK)
Queen (Australia)
Melt-Banana (UK)
Deep Purple (Australia)
America (UK)
Europe (Australia)

I'm pretty sure these are all available.

Many of us like to listen to bands with names like "Pissed Jeans", "Butthole Surfers" and "Anal Cunt". That being the case, what's the correct answer to the poll?
