Frequently Asked Questions
How do I check a band name isn't taken?
Search Bandcamp, Spotify and the trademark register for your country before you print merch. Short two-word metal names get taken quickly.
What if I want a one-word name?
Take a single element — Throneguard, Ashfall, Graveiron — and reroll until it sounds like a logo rather than a phrase.
