I love Nerosion.

All our opinions aside, the name's got to mean something to you though, right?

The fundemental problem with this question is that there is no music to stylistically referance the name by. --That would help immensely.

Also, as an anecedote, before they settled for the name Butthole Surfers, the Butthole Surfers played gigs with a variety of names, many names only lasting for a specific gig.

I like Granfaloonerie.

If you're taking more suggestions, though, a couple that came up on another forum:

Theoretical Invisible Hybrid Robot Baby

Flatulent Nihilism

My partner's sister's band (aka my sister-in-law, sorta) is in a band that does something like that. The first two words are always the same, but then they add more to it everytime, so it's like a whole sentence.

This is the same quasi-sister-in-law that danced on stage with the butthole surfers (half naked and covered in paint). Yep, she's all kinds of awesome. So are the butthole surfers.

She was the one who was mute by choice and qould only communicate via written word through the notebook she carried around, correct? Circa 1982 to 1986?
