naming the band

So I'm getting my first music project in like 5 years off the ground….
And coming up with a band name is like the worst thing ever.

I'm thinking a guy who calls himself "Chaz" should at least be consistent and go with something really yuppie/yacht-rockish sounding.
How about "Devendra's Dong"?

It's interesting you say that because we are actually really into Yacht-Rock.
Maybe I should just use my man crush, Rhett Miller, as my screen name.

For a small fee I'm willing to license Quickie 'n the Bushes, but you have to have at least one chick in your band.

sorry, this band is a sausage fest, though we may eventually snag female to play organ/keys. If so, what is your licensing fee?

Casual mention in the liner notes, name on the guest list with back stage passes on the rare occasion that I can make your show, non-binding input into the bands first single, and negotiating role in which TV shows the bands songs appear in (which may require me to visit the set to make sure the song is being used appropriately in the scene).
Come to think of it, even if you don't go with Quickie, you may just wnat to agree to most of that anyway.

I didn't really start this thread to solicit suggestions…but the lone rangers is a real strong front runner!
just kidding.
at least 3 times a week me and my mates will go back and forth via email for a few hours throwing band names around. we've had so many bad ideas and few good ones. and the good ones start to sound like bad ones real fast.
naming my kids was much easier.
