I thought of Fallen Deity ?? Yeah meh?
Speaking off stink pickles we had a kid in the neighborhood growing up that would get mad at us and call us doo doo pickles!? Never could figure out what that was about. Forty years later I still use it.I'm going with...
Stink Pickle
No that's..... What's the word?.... Overdramatic? ...Weak?
It sounds like some Dungeons and Dragons nerds got tired of playing World of Warcraft and moved the computers out of their mom's basement and decided to start a metal band there instead and that's what they named themselves. The least popular nerd of the group is hard at work trying to design a logo and incorporate a unicorn into it somehow.
It's just... nah.
Let's see.... What's something synonymous with gems, but naughtily suggestive? Jewels? ...Family Jewels? ... Nuts?
And something synonymous with boss and maybe a nod to current times? Supervisor? ... President? ... Trump?
There ya go...
"Trump's Nuts."
As a bonus, liberals will assume the name means Trump "IS" nuts. and conservatives will think it's a reference to his cohones.
You can appeal to both political sides, ride a wave of controversy for the next 4 to 8 years and as long as the band never officially elaborates on it, it can be a huge tongue-in-cheek joke everyone can enjoy.
You'd also be a shoe-in for any late night talk show simply because the host would get to say "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome... TRUMP'S NUTS!"
I tend to avoid political and or racial references due to people's staunch emotional tendencies. It just divides.
Now religion however is and has always been controversial and fair game for me. I'm not religious. just saying.
I once thought of Sinthetic Pope?
Devils in Heat... ?
Boy!....You don't half come up with some bad names![]()

I can only speak for myself, but I'm refraining from voting because I don't want even anonymous culpability in the decision between either of these options, which IMHO, should be removed from contention, with extreme prejudice.
But, in the spirit of trying to be somewhat useful, I would suggest a different form of the first:
Gemineye
If you're going for the play on words with gemini, that's closer, and it doesn't look like the name for a folk-reggae fusion duo.
