This morning I overheard a colleague on the phone explaining a computer procedure, saying, "Hover over the bubble," and thought what a great name it would make for a band.

Hover Over The Bubble - I've got all their records. Well, all the early stuff.

I always liked "Sandcastle bd" after it being uttered many times whilst playing the seaside track on MicroMachines V4 and crashing into the same sandcastle every lap.

This is a game I play with my brother. I used to be in a band, and now if one of us utters a slightly silly phrase for some reason the other goes "didn't you support them once?"

Has potential for a reverse Faces-style spinoff, too.

From Scrubs:

Elliot: Hey roomie, I went shopping. This couch reminded me of my grampa, he used to drive around in a car just like it. You know, until he was killed in that seven car pile-up.
J.D.: Seven car pile-up would be a good name for a rock band.
Elliot: I know, you told me that on the day he died.

My dad was in a band called the Symbolics.

They used to kick off with him saying We're the Symbolics, I'm Sym & these are... the band.

He thought that was hilarious.

I just opted to do my first release in a decade under the name Phantom Limb. Couldn't think of anything good.

Hmmmmmm....

I guess perspective and topic make the name really....not just bands...

A thrash metal band called "Flux Capacitor" would probably make Megadeath sound like The Saturdays

And if a singer was named after an instrument then "Bumper Fivestring" would surely play the blues like a mofo !!

Max Mosely would probably be pleased to spend time with a lady called "Walnut Whip"

I'd only drink a whiskey called "Piston Slap" on occasions of an extreme emotional nature

I'd watch movies if they had some nympho starring in them called "Cadence Braking"

And I would buy all my clothes if they were tailor made by the irish/italian designer "Findus Lasagne".........assuming I dont have a horsehair allergy !!

At work I use a tool that would make a good debt collector name...."Mr F Crimper" would defintely get money from people I reckon !!

Was given a cake at work last week. I described it as an 'epic cupcake', and my colleague said it's be a great name for a band. One day...

We even decided to nick mr. Scruff's irreverent album art style with cartoonised cupcakes.
