Hello all. I'm about to launch on a new musical venture and am trying to pick a band name.

The options are:
Quixote Jones: As in Don Quixote, and Jones as in a drug craving. i.e. I crave to go charging at windmills, to live in my imagination.
Buko Wolf: an allusion to my favorite author Charles Bukowski and my favorite animal, the wolf.
Kerouac Whitman: Two famous poets/writers who I admire.
Icarus Fawkes: I fly too close to the sun like Icarus, and Fawkes is named after Guy Fawkes and the Phoenix in Harry Potter. i.e. I'm an anarchist who flies too close to the sun and is reborn every time I die.
Mr. Minuit: Means Mr. Midnight in French.
Sven Seven: Sven was an old high school nickname. Seven is just a lucky number.
Reve de Lune: means moon dream in French.
Something else: Any ideas? I want to emphasize lyrics and the hopelessness of never giving up in this impossible venture of music.

Considering my name is not Jeff, that's probably not the best choice. J stands for Jason. My middle name is Neff. Thanks for the suggestion though...

I think the poll choices are pretty cheesy.

But then again that's not stopped a lot of bands.

My band would be 'The Sluts'. No idea if it's been used before but there it is.

Cheesy huh?

Zac, forgive me if I question your judgement. The sluts? You must be SUPER edgy. :oops:

we link it to themes;
Our products is managed from the headquarters The Ravenoville's digital distribution.
*Are we there yet? The Ravenoville's left the stage to thunderous applause.

*Question, which I've often heard as a Technoclub custodian.

Your right it does not reflect you , how would anyone know.
It's just humor like humor is, See it as Critical self judgement, that reflects more the time spirit, because you want to act AU PUBLIC, better have something to say about the world, then that it is just you.
There is always an Edge on stage, you can fall from. So being (what you call Edgy ) is far from it.
It is what you want to see sing, preform for the world, better be edgy i think, other ways people have a hard time listening.
So its nothing personal , you can handel it , can`t you ?
Lady Gaga is not about Lady Gaga, people make it that way. Al the sex related stuff is just to let see, itś al normal. Dont be upset about it is all she wants to express. etc etc .

anyway, the name will come, when your ready for it to recieve the name i would suggest.

It not all in the name is it ?

Love.

Neff is cool as shit!! Rolls off the tongue. - butter than all the other names there, IMO.

Just needs a prefix or suffix or something.
But, cool name.
The definition is perfect, too. Gives you a hill to climb.

There is a clothing company already called Neff. https://www.neffheadwear.com/

However, mixing up Jason's name just a bit works too.

Leff Jind sounds a bit alright.
