Name for a pirate band?


Recommended Posts

Ahoy pirates...

Me mates and meself down here in Santa Fe are starting a sea song group. We plan t' sing fer fun and money, mainly going to the Plaza and singing for tips. Only problem is, Santa Fe is hundreds and hundreds of miles from any major body of water. So I'm trying to think of a really good name for the group that is piratey and deserty all at the same time. (We're thinking of having a sign next to the tip jar that says "help these poor landlocked pirates get home to a ship...") Any ideas?

I liked Marooned - or with a desert tilt, Marooned on the Mesa.

Band names? Don't even ask me...

But your motto could be:

"We're in it for the booty!"

Knockin Booty?

Hows about shortening it up to one word: "Knockbooty"?

Or go for the exotic: "Nokbuti" or the Germanic: "Nachbutte" or even "Nachenzebutzen"
