The band Coheed and Cambria were originally called Shabutie. Pronounced sha-booty. They are from my hometown in new york

And of course there’s always Canadian alt-rockers Finger 11… Formerly known as The Rainbow Butt-Monkeys.

Great list, Paul!

Lol…Nirvana should’ve kept that name. (Sorry, couldn’t resist.)

WTF? I just heard some guy on the radio saying he’d been in a band called REM. The story was that there was a battle of the bands for the name in which the winner got to rename the losing band. The REM we know supposedly renamed the other band Egoslavia. Who knew?

REM was originally The Twisted Kites, until they realized that there was another band with that name already. Then they almost changed their name to The Negro Wives.
