Possible Band Names

Abbi and I needed to think of a name for our band, so we thought of names which could describe the song Sleepyhead. The only word we could conclude on was random, so our choice of a band name was pretty much anything...
The band names we thought of are;
Kids With Knives
Lego Monkey
Bad Luck Chuck
Logan
The Old School Hate Clowns
Power Ranger Rendezvous

We had to then narrow down the choice of bands, the ones that we thought were either too random or just didn't suit the band at all. We then decided to get rid of Logan as we thought it was too vague with the band image.
The next two we got rid off were Bad Luck Chuck, as it's too much like the film Good Luck Chuck, so we thought it would be a bit cheeky to steal it. The other name we got rid of was Lego Monkey, as we weren't sure about that particular name as it was again too vauge.
We then got rid of Kids With Knives, because we thought it had no connection to the band's image and it sounds more like a rock genre rather than the indie genre that our band is.
We then had our two favorites left that were; The Old School Hate Clowns and Power Rangers Rendezvous. We asked other people in our class what they thought of the names, the overall result was that The Old School Hate Clowns was too wordy and the other name was more fun and random. Which we then thought was the right name for the band, as all Indie bands have random names, for example; Two Door Cinema Club, Passion Pit and Mumford And Sons. So this links very well for our intended genre and theme of song.
