Tips for Choosing a Funk Band Name

If your name doesn't make someone want to move, it's not funky enough.

Funk names should be fun to say — rhythm and syllable count matter.

Don't be subtle — funk is maximalist music and the name should match.

Band-as-machine metaphors (Parliament, Funkadelic, The Meters) are a proven formula.
