Exit Clov!  :p  
 
 I also hate all these single syllable names that have become the rage with the 15 minute crowd.

I guess also would come into play, those names that either are too close to a famous band (Smashing Orange), or all too similar such as:
 
 Superdrag
 Supergrass
 Superjesus
 Supersuckers
 Superdiamond

Screaming Cheetah Wheelies
 Mad At Gravity
 
 Those two always come immediately to mind; I'm sure I'll think of dozens more later.

I didn't see this post till just now, and after seeing the author, I knew immediately what your choice was. Maybe you should come out on the 16th and see them play.

Honorable mentions,
 
 String Cheese Incident
 
 
 Phish (spell it right for God's sake)
 
 All those other mis-spelled names like Mystikal or whatever it is.

Good bands, bad names
 
 The New Deal
 Broken Social Scene
 ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead
 James Taylor Quartet
 The Sea And Cake
 (people always confuse it as two bands, The Sea, which they've never heard of, and Cake)
 
 Perhaps the all time worst: Insane Clown Posse
