Well, I forget the exact names, but at one point I had codenames thought up for the novels I plan to write. I think they went a little something like this:
Perfect Love
Perfect Hope
Perfect Life (I think this one was actually different)
Perfect End
Although I think the content I plan for them has changed sufficiently for said codenames to no longer apply. Now I just call them thier working names (Cliche Robot, Project Bloodlines, Machines of War, Machines of Mercy).
Edit: Once again, the names for these have changed. Cliche Robot doesn't work for the serious tone I'd like to portray for this. The current working titles are Machines of War, Tools of Contest, Engines of Destruction, and Instruments of Mercy.

a couple of band names me and a few friends came up with years ago in highschool...
Diesel Rabbi
Tracy's Teeth
The Pirates of Spam
Horsehair Jockeys
Danger-Prone Daphne
...in the end, they chose "Ashes of Eden" for their band name... guess it's kinda a good thing they didn't last too long, especially with a name like that...

| Not only is this limited to your ideas, you can even have other names from a movie or a game. Anything! If it's funny, serious, anything! Woo! |

Well, way back in the 7th grade,when I cohorted all my friends into watching spanish soaps, no surprise.But we did come up with our own versions of what the novels should of been called...
Dos mujeres, un bueno para nada
Te sigo odiando
El premio chiquito
Las perdedoras
La mentira bien buena
Solo los nachos
Tu y Yo... y también el gavacho.
designate names that quite possible could end up on a spanish network.

"...el gavacho"?
personally, I liked "The Losers" one... and the second one (because it sounds like something I'd like to say to a complete stranger someday... lol)

gavacho: An American, typically an anglo male.A spanish insult.

Hmm, best name for something... How about: Kalma is the best name for a forum user.

I always thought Shetland Pony Genocide would make a great band name... and that's the only thing I can remember off the top of my head.

I actually may put this thread to good use, as I'm currently writing a sci-fi novel of some sort, but as of yet it lacks a title. I'll post it later and maybe get some ideas.

I was in a band for a time, and I thought we had a pretty kick-ass name (although it never made it onto anything we were doing......shazbot):
"Punks Rampant"
A cookie goes to anyone who can tell me where we got it from. (Hint: I'm a stage-nerd.)

I've discovered that "Crushing Naked Goddess" sounds like a good name for a third-rate J-pop band, but I'm not holding my breath
