Names -> Cool Band Names -> X, Page 1
Whenever I hear a cool phrase somewhere, I like to exclaim "That would make a cool band name". This page is a list of such names.
I can not verify whether these names have been taken yet or not. If your band happens to already use one of these names sorry. If you want to use a name you see here, you'll need to verify it's not already in use.
Entries Beginning with X, Page 1
Name | Origin | Submitted by: | ||
| X Double N | I have 2 other friends, the last letters in our names are X, N, and N. but also, theres this 4th member who's name ends in E, so we say she is silent in the front. (e) X Double N | Kaitlin | ||
| X marks the spot | it would be a cool punk/folk/gangster/country/disco band name.lol | jimbo | ||
| X Squared | I think it's cool because everyone is looking for X in the band name or stuff like that. And I added Squared because it makes it sound cool. Plus the name in total makes sense from math. | ultimate_bassist | ||
| The X,Y,Zeros | JustMeAgainstTheWorld101 | |||
| X-it | friend of mine thought it would be a cool name for a band- I think it kinda suck- maybe fitting for a boy band or a teen type band. | splitz chick | ||
| X-Laphones | A boy was asking me what instument i play in my band (vocals actually) and he said "What, it is the xylaphone or something" so I said to my friend (also in the band) "X-Laphone would be kind of cool for our bands name, like xylaphone but without the 'y'!" | Liz | ||
| X-medicine | i was watching some stand-up comedy show some day, and that dude was talking about that medicine companies are trying to make you believe it is a good medicine by putting an X in the name... thought it was a cool band name but my bandmembers didn't agree | Floris | ||
| X-Prep | The doctors used to prescribe this liquid solution over the counter before colon surgery or exams. It tasted like what 5-Hour Energy tastes like, only with prunes. Not potable at all. | Mr. Oblivious | ||
| X-Rated | A friend of mine was telling me how she had to get a lot of X-rays when she was a kid, then turned and called out to her mother, "Hey Mom, remember how we said that if I had to get another X-ray, I'd glow in the dark?" Her mom looked up, rather confused, and said, "What?? X-rated glow-in-the-dark??" | Medication-High Jesteress Among Royalty | ||
| X-Ray and The Lead Aprons | If the technician doesn't make you wear a lead apron before an x-ray, then you could be D.O.A. | science | ||

| Xanadu | In Euro class, we talked about how the European explorers were searching for Xanadu, a place of great wealth in Africa. I just remembered that its a pretty sweet name. | josh | ||
| xander | I think my name is very unique and it came to me not as my real name but a nick name, short for Alexander. | xander | ||
| Xander Berkeley | A relatively unknown actor, who shows up in a lot of movies, never in any important role. (Editor: Fans of "24" strongly disagree.) | GlamRockNinjaLord | ||

| Xenocide | I just made it on my own. I combined cool words and phrases to create this name. It's like you're in purgatory or what. It doesn't make any sense at all. [Ed.'s note: And neither does your explanation, but I'll put up the name anyway.] | billy | ||
| Xenon Nightlights | Idk I'm scared of the dark so I have this bright a** nightlight and I just thought of it | Jared | ||
| Xenophobia | It comes from Greek. It translates to something like fear of strangers. I think it would be a good name for maybe a punk rock band or dance techno/synthpop band. It kind of gives an air of alienation and isolation. Something I think lots of people are feeling nowadays. And, it just sounds cool! | Ed | ||
| Xenoxx | I was playing a game called "Age Of Mythology", and there's this guy called Xenos. Then I thought of my nickname being Fenixx, and somehow Xenoxx came into my mind. I like it because it's original. No one could steal it, and it also is the 2nd largest lan-party in Norway, without one of the 'X's though. | Fenixx | ||
| Xeon 12 | This name is amazing, It just popped up in my head as I was thinkng of girls. Then I thought, thats a great band name! I mean, nothing beats it! | ACe | ||

| XiNN | I was trying to think of cool band names like 'Sin'. So I thought to make sin look and sound cooler and spell it like XiNN. | Rebecca Manning | ||
| Xion | Like Zion but with an 'x'. Christian band. Maybe. | Too Cool for School | ||
| Xiphos Forr | Xipheu is Latin for 'sword', and 'forr' is kind of like four. So it's basically 'the four swords.' Good for a band with a bunch of guitars or something...? | Kyle | ||

| Xodom 666 | One day, I wrote a a letter to my girlfriend. I don't want her to know the sender. So instead of my name, I wrote "xodom 666". I think it will be cool like a band's name. | adil nasri | ||
| Xperience | I was looking at the other band names that start with an X, and I thought:I can do better than that. And it came to me. It's cool because it's spelled wrong like other rock bands nowadays and it has an odd ring to it. | Mike | ||

| Xylophoney | A play on xylophone, only it's imposters that can't play a note on this instrument. | MOR | ||

| Xyster | Pronounced (Zister).. It is a surgical tool used for removing meat from bone. It was my old band name, but we never went anywhere. The highlite of our music career was rocking the high school talent show. | Pedro | ||
