If Groups Combined, Their Names Might Be... -> Latest Entries
ShaCiara
In Irish tradition, the name Ciara is pronounced "KEER-uh", even though that's not how the second singer herself says it. Still, the combined name would sound exactly like the first singer's name.

The Trash Bandits
"Trash bandit" is a slang term for a raccoon, because raccoons will commonly get into people's garbage cans searching for food. I think it would be a good and funny name for a punk rock or alternative rock band.

Vampire Venom
Not something I came up with. There's a guy named Harry Slatkin who's a maker of high end scented candles (and scented soaps) and you'll regularly see them sold on the shopping channel QVC. Anyways I just recently saw they were selling a set of Halloween themed liquid hand soaps from him. And one of them was named Vampire Venom, and I immediately thought that would make a cool band name. I think it'd be a good name for a goth rock band.
