Band Name

darcym

it's got to be something personal to you, or something that represents you, I think you're onto a loser asking for band names from random strangers with nothing other than a music style.

Ok we have a name!!

Whippoorwill after an American bird

Personally, I'd have avoided something that folk won't know how to pronounce and/ or spell. In this day and age you want a name someone can hear once and still remember next time they're on Facebook.

.....aaaaand you also need to make sure the name isn't already taken....which Whippoorwill is.(Sorry!)

I like Whippoorwill and it seems to evoke the right image. It will fail the pub chalkboard test. Never expect to see it spelt correctly by a pub landlord.

Georgie

Good points well raised - back to the drawing board!!

Alnico

You could call the band.....

'Free Spirits'

You would pack pubs out every time with that on the chalk board outside.

Georgie

Excellent idea - love it lol

You should call yourself "sponsored by TheFretBoard.co.uk: Britain's premier guitar forum". You could change your name every month and supplement your gig earnings!
