Name for Change- and the New Name Callenge

After two whole days (not an exaggeration), we have finally found the "New" name for our band! It took us what seemed like forever to come up with a name that we - a. both liked, b. was not too long, c. embodied the same sense of musical direction and ideas, and last but not least D. was not taken. Part D. of this entire process was the biggest pain in the ass I have ever endured as far as naming anything! But thank God we finally have our new band name "Gravity Giving In"! I can sleep soundly and pay full attention to what's going on around me again. I'm so relieved, and I am ready to get some much needed rest.
From an outside perspective it would appear that I have been obsessing over the re-naming situation- and I'll admit I have, but...
Just for fun, I challenge everyone reading this to make up a name for a band and and Google it to see if its taken. The guidelines besides the band name not being used by another band are as follows. The band name can't be the name of a movie or any other copyrighted or trademarked material. It can't be a series of words anyone has ever strung together and posted "anywhere"! No short stories, blogs, songs, names of famous people, or anyone/anything that would require legal consent to use. Now for an added challange, make up a message you want to convey in your imaginary band, and then make your band name have something "anything" to do with your message.* Bonus points awarded for three words or less. After you have all of those elements together you win the band name challenge! WARNING: May cause serious insomnia, nausea, headaches, fleeting attention span, irridibility, complete and total loss of mind. Not reccomended for women who are pregnant or may become pregnant due to chest pain in some labratory results.
All joking and complaining aside we are very happy with our band name and we think it likes us too.
