Stone Tears sounds a bit emo-ey, I´d say Mixed Bag. Or the Seattle Bunny-flappers.

Broken Taillight sounds pretty cool. I like the "No Room For ..." bit too, but I'm not so sure about "Jello"..

Mixed Bag might make you seem like a Richie Havens cover band.

Broken Taillight.

I'd avoid any use of the word Jello, just in case... Kraft already sued Green Jell˙ (formerly Green Jello) over it. (Might've had somethin' to do with the band's slogan "Green Jello Sucks!!", but why chance it.)

But seriously, from that list, Broken Taillight.

You need a Bigger list. What alt/rock bands do you cover? Try to make a list of song names from the bands you most frequently cover and combine some form of those into a name. Maybe That will help.

Not being mean just honest, I don't think any of the names on your list are very good. Unless there is a personal attachment, none of those are going to intrigue me enough to find out what your all about.

Broken Tailight is taken. Same spelling. Look on iTunes.

This Is Our List would actually be a pretty sweet band name. And if anyone asks how you came up with it, it would be a pretty sweet story.

I like Unsafe Postal Bunch.

Like daveh30 said, avoid the use of 'Jello' due to registered trademark infringement issues.

Is the singer hot, because that could be relevant.
