Default I need some advice, pretty badly…

Hey guys, here's the deal. My friend & I are starting a punk band. It was late when we came up with the name we currently have, so give us a break. Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone would listen to a band with the following name: "I Liek Frenz!1".

Translation: "I Like Friends!" for anyone who might have trouble with that.

So far, everyone hates it. So, be honest, because I don't want to have a name that no one would listen to, but try to keep it somewhat nice. Suggest names, if you have any ideas.

Thankssss!

-Thom D.

For that matter, Pearl Jam has one of the most retarded sounding names of the past few decades and look how big they got.

Hmm, that genre of music doesnt strike me as the crazy band name type. Metal and punk are always game but jazz or bluegrass mayyyyyybe not.

Yeah, I know it's mostly music, but some shallow people judge a band based on the name & we are trying to avoid that. :/ Jansoon, good point about Pearl Jam. I never liked that name, but the music is good.

This one was suggested to me by someone: "Crash Trampoline". Sounds like one of those random punk-type names. What do you guys think?

Well I think Crash Trampoline is better than the name you have, mainly because I think your current name is kind of hard to remember.
