Band name - Funk Rock

Hi there!

I am setting up a new band.
We will be playing Funk Rock (RHCP- and Rage against the machine-like).

We currently have 3 members.
A guitarist, A drummer and a bassist (me).
Vocals are hard to find though, maybe one of us can sing

Now the hardest part: The name.
Any suggestions?

Thanks!
Jelle

Would anything local work for you? Do you sing in English or in Dutch?

The Dikefunkers (Sorry - the innuendo)
The Dijkfunkers (More local)
The Red Lights or the Red Light Funkers (Sorry - I was in Amsterdam just a month ago)
The Klompenfunks


Taking off from your nick:

The Jellyfunks

I'll get my coat.
