There's always the ever classic Japanese Flower Travellin' Band and the Finnish monstrosity that is Havukuruunu.

Finnish bands have some pretty damn tongue-mangly names, all right. I used to have a track from the band Kotiteolisuus (I probably misspelled that...not sure if it's one L or two) on my Winamp playlist once upon a time. The song ("Jos Sanon") is crazy-good butt rock, but I can't pronounce the band itself to save my life.
 
Screeching Weasel, Nuclear Rabbit, mechanically Separated Chicken, all good ones!
 
Hardstyle is full of some really ESL-ass names, like:
'Mark With A K'
'Jack of Sound'
My personal favorite, 'Donkey Rollers'

Otherwise just take any word, replace all the 's's with 'z's, and I guarantee you it's somebody's hardstyle pseudonym.
 
The Mad Capsule Markets.
Japanese punk band, had some songs on the Tokyo Drift and THPS3 soundtracks, but they never got big.

I thought they were pretty good, but that name is just odd. Could probably make a thread dedicated to weird Japanese band names.

Someone already said this but Limp Bizkit. Apparently, their name was supposed to fucking suck on purpose.
Wikipedia dijo:
Durst named the band Limp Bizkit, because he wanted a name that would repel listeners. According to Durst, "The name is there to turn people's heads away. A lot of people pick up the disc and go, 'Limp Bizkit. Oh, they must suck.' Those are the people that we don't even want listening to our music." Other names that were considered by Durst included Gimp Disco, Split Dickslit, Bitch Piglet, and Blood Fart. Every record label that showed an interest in the band pressured its members to change its name.

Honestly I would have went with Gimp Disco or Bitch Piglet.
 
I have a buddy that used to listen to a type of music called Pornogrind. On top of being absolute trash they had ridiculous band name like Cock and Ball Torture or Torsofuck. The album titles were things like Erotic Diarrhea Fantasy.
 
Five Iron Frenzy.
I like their songs, but the name gives a Heavy Metal vibe, when that couldn’t be further from the truth.

From what I've heard, the name Limp Bizkit came from an incident that Fred Durst witnessed where someone told a stoned hippie that he had "a mind like a limp bisquit".

AC/DC got their name from a label that was attached to a sewing machine.

Turbonegro got their name from a piece of grafitti on a wall in an Oslo subway station. For some years, they didn't want to be seen as politically incorrect, so they performed as TRBNGR, or as Stierkampf (which means "bullfight" in German) instead. They soon reverted to their original name though.

TRBNGR just looks even worse though. It looks like it would stand for "TribbleNigger."

Don't forget Lynyrd Skynyrd who was named after their high school gym teacher that used make fun of them for having long hair. Rossington even dropped out of high school because of it.
