Being a lover for interesting band names I was wondering what some of your favorites are.

A few off the top of my head: Aphrodite's Child; Smashing Pumpkins; Clash; I Am the World Trade Center; Rolling Stones; My Morning Jacket; Nirvana; Oasis; Replacements; Sonic Youth.

Those probably aren't my top favorites, but they are what came to mind right now. Consider them a discussion starter.

This is "greatest," right, not weirdest? Weirdest might include Godspeed You Black Emperor; Neutral Milk Hotel; Butthole Surfers...

Though probably not the best names or bands ever, some of my favorites include The Violent Femmes, I Voted for Kodos, The Meat Puppets, The Pixies, Sunny Day Real Estate, and Zolof the Rock and Roll Destroyer.

The Arcade Fire. It's just eloquent, I guess.

Yeah, but they can't even decide if they're The Arcade Fire or Arcade Fire (without the "The"). Confused

If it were up to me, I'd drop the "The."

If I had a band that ever made it out of the garage, I would forcibly title us Captain Hasbeen and the Neverwuzzes.
