Naming my metal band, I have to names to pick from... what is your opinion?

Question

Hi,

I have a metal band that has been around for serveral years, but I am changing the name because it just does not work anymore since the band went through changes. The band is dark, metal, and female fronted.

The 2 names that I thought of so far is Carpathian Witch and WitchKraft.

I thought Carpathian Witch may be good because it is female fronted and she is actualy Carpathian. Also, band is going for a witchy feel, but it may be not strong enough of a name... I don't know.

I thought WitchKraft is good, but there is a band in our genere in Sweden called Witchcraft with a C, and there are like 5 other bands named witchCraft. So although WichKraft sounds like a powerful name, it amy not stand out because of the popularity of the other one with the C.

Any suggestions, comments, tips... ? I would so greatly appreciate it....

Answer 1

There already is a metal band called Carpathian forest, so consider carefully ifyou want a name so close to an existing one.
Everyone will think you're trying to copy them.
Maybe just turn it around, like "Witch of Carpathia" or sth.

Answer 2

i wouldn't go with WitchKraft, because that reminds me too much of Kraft mac and cheese the carpathian witch is ok, but you are right it's not a very strong name, i wouldn't go for anything too singular that makes one person any more important than any body else. if you guys like the carpathian thing, i would do something like the carpathians or carpathia
naming your band is a difficult thing, i wish you the best of luck.

Answer 5

while you're going into steel extra, I salute you. And if so, the two The Syndicate or Wyvern might artwork. and that i might advise a band call like Non Timebo Mala (Latin for "i'll concern no evil") besides.
