Initial Band Brand Name Ideas

Our group has been finding it hard to create and think of our name for our artist. As Katy Perry is a solo artist we too need to create a solo artists name not a band name. Our group was been unable to agree so far wheter to have the artist with a normal name or give them a stage name. I believe that for the pop genre many artists have created stage names for themselves For example:
- Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta is Lady Gaga
- Victoria Louise Lott is Pixie Lott
- Kathryn Elizabeth Hudson is Katy Perry
- Alecia Moore is Pink



Research on Stage Names: From Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stage_name

Motivation to use a stage name - A performer will often take a stage name because their real name is considered unattractive, dull, unintentionally amusing or difficult to pronounce or spell, or because it has been used by another notable individual or because it projects an undesired image. Sometimes a performer adopts a name that is unusual or outlandish to attract attention. Other performers use a stage name in order to retain anonymity.


I also read that other artists even use their stage name to create an image for themselves and their style of music. Therefore, I believe that by creating a stage name for our group we will be able to incorporate a whole image to reflect the artist and their music.
