Help me think of a new band name

So, yeah, like, that band that I've been working with now already HAD a name before, but we've been talking about perhaps calling ourselves something else. The name now - The Hitmen - rather lame-O if you ask me, but unless I've got something better what am I supposed to say? I tried that name generator thing, but didn't really like any of 'em. We're playing all covers, too - so don't make it TOO cool. Hehehee.

Hey I've come up with some good ones lately:

Happy Ending

I like the ring to it, and the double entendre and all that stuff. If you dont use it, I am with whatever the next band is.

Remember I have to try to sell this name to the other guys. I like names to be rather short and cerebral (and clever, too)...well, maybe not. Every other band name that I've come up with has been The "somethings". But, I think The Hitmen is rather cheesy. And, you're right, it should be memorable. Keep the ideas coming, guys. How about something psychological like "SuperEgo" or The Fixation or something? Hmmm....

Ok, I still need help here. So far they liked the Beige Tones - sort of a hybrid of Otan's suggestions. Anyone have any more ideas. We have a week to make up fliers!

Ok, I think it's sort of been narrowed down to these names. Tell me what you guys think:

Libid-O-Rama
Guarded by Monkeys
Velvet Rebellion
Sound Clinic
