Even reading the thread title you had to stop and think. Oh, right, Live. The band literally named Live.

It was a terrible name in the 90s even BEFORE internet search engines and it's way worse now. Also the singer is Bald. Discuss.

not at this level, but ridiculous names that dont get mocked enough due to the success of the groups are

The Beatles

Led Zeppelin

Imagine confronting the terrible pun in the first one with fresh eyes

other than being very of its time I don't think their is anything wrong with Led Zeppelin. Better than Pink Floyd.

And Led Zeppelin's name came from a remark by, I think, Keith Moon who said that Jimmy Page's new band would go over like a lead balloon. Jimmy Page then took the insult and ran with it. It is spelled "Led" because they did not want people to pronounce it Leed Zeppelin.

Jimmy Page was in the Yardbirds but they broke up mid-tour and he had to get a band together to complete the tour. Plant was an unknown. JPJ was a well-known and well-repsected studio musician.

conversely, if a band were called :D it would work and be 180

pronounceable ("deeh") and also 180
