His surname is quite a mouthful for non-Greek types, so I think we should count ourselves lucky that he took the Cher/Madonna route.

Hey guys there is actually a band called Fuck. I think it's the worst name ever.

Ok ok, apologies. It doesn't beat Chatzinou for a surname, though. No offence intended to any Greek posters at all. My name is Vittorio, the worst Italian name in the world ever.

This is true. hahahaha

I kinda like it though, simply cause it's so absurdly stupid. You knew that eventually a band was gonna call themselves "fuck", it was bound to happen.

and for the record i really like the name Guided By Voices

There were a few local bands around here that had some pretty funny names, chief among them being Screaming Monkey Boner. There was another called Danny Downsyndrome, and their flyers depicted a cartoonish, retarded child.

think a lot of good-bad ones are taken - it's safe to say objects like the felt tip pens are bad... like there are some rules maybe.... I've always thought Nirvana and Radiohead were terrible names for bands - umm i dont know - i think its a very hard thing to get a good band name.

This did make me think of one band name though, but im not sure because i like it so much - but i give you Severed Head and the Neckfuckers

the onion has a pretty awesome list of sucky names that defy the imagination:
