Great fun. I do this all the time. I was using the name Rubber Band at least four years before Bootsy Collins. Too bad I didn't register it.
You can dress like accountants and call yourselves PUTZ.
Or dress like Darius in the Burger King Commercial and call yourselves THE PURPLE SPURS.
Or you can simply pretend your uninspired and slugish and call yourselves the SOMNAMBULISTS.

The first time I saw the Red Hot Chili Peppers, when they were still playing small clubs in L.A. and O.C., they were still up-and-comers and nobody at the table had ever heard or seen them. So after a few drinks (and before the band was up) we started coming up with names that we thought were stupid, similar and funny.

Mushy Nanners
Browne Peachez
Ice Cold Pita Pockets
Joosee Rotten Pikklz
Underdone Chicken Thighs
Raw Tomaytos
Garlicpeel

Then there was:

Onion-Breth (inspired by the appetizer)
Don't Eat the Burrito
Finger-Lickin' Good (actually became the name of a band that did't involve any of us)

One guitarist at my HS had a band - his name was Chris Gillette, so his band was called Chris Gillette and the Bandaids.

Well, here's a legit name request: for a Minnesota Bluegrass band, complete with fiddle, mandolin, banjo, guitar, bass-4 or 5 string instruments. I think I have heard of too many to process a new name. TW
How about Sota Blue?

Here's a tip, no one should forget that to turn any band name into a metal band name, just put umlauts over a letter. Kind of like Motley Crue was written, with the umlauts over the u. I don't have a way to do this with my keyboard, but it will surely make your band more hardcore metallistic as you play a black sabbath-like dirge.

Man ... I am just too old school ...

my band was named 'Eclipse'.

My individual music was released under the name 'michaeledward'

As for the name of : "a Minnesota Bluegrass band, complete with fiddle, mandolin, banjo, guitar, bass-4 or 5 string instruments", I would probably suggest 'Minnesota Bluegrass' or 'The Authentic Minnesota Bluegrass Band'.
