Band Name Ideas

So today Karen and I (and possibly Cam, but more importantly Cam's car) go out to our local electronics store to conspicuously consume expensive merchandise. With any luck, by the end of today I will be rocking out on my new Xbox 360 with Rock Band special edition. Thus finally solving all my problems except one: what should Cam and I name our band?
We tried randomly snatching a band name from the tv listings scroll but although I was really excited about "Anderson Cooper 360" Cam seemed less than convinced. Runners up in my mind were "Dakar Rally" and "Max and Ruby".
Other ideas stolen from non-random television shows include: "World's Most Giant Doctor", "Jet Boy and Jet Girl" (I'd even let Cam be Jet Boy) and... dammit, I can never think of third example to round out a cool list.
Only a few ideas come from life rather than tv: "Strawberry Nazi" and, if we decide to become a Christian band that later sells out and renounces their religion, either "The Apostates" (for a ridiculous death-metal band) or "Aftermaps" (for a ridiculous any other sort of band).
Maybe I've put too much thought into this.
