The Rolling Stones are the equivalent of the Rolex marketing team:
-The official name: The Rolling Stones -The shortened version: The Stones -Well earned nickname known worldwide: The Greatest Rock & Roll Band in The World -One of the most identifiable logos recognized across the globe: The famous lips & tongue -Euphemism for the the writing team: The Glimmer Twins -They continue to get more expensive and more difficult to experience -They never go out of style dP

In High School I was in a metal band.
We played the same venue, same setup, the same songs, in the same order, the same exact way every show. We called ourselves OC/DC.

The UNDISPUTED best rock band, and of course band name, since the beginning of time itself!

But thats not the point of the thread. What's the best names? For instance Nirvana is great music IMO. The name however, is very lack luster.
