Battle Of The Bands Style Fundraiser For Haiti

Posted by mtmreyes on 6/16/2013 at 8:04 AM ET 250 Points
I need a name for a music event in Hamilton, Ontario. It's a multi-genre 'battle of the bands' style competition to raise funds for a sexual health education project in Haiti. We're getting 5 industry professionals as judges, and once we finish auditions, we'll select 5 finalist performers/bands to compete at the main event.

I need some good name ideas that are edgy, clever, and appealing to both younger and older crowds. I'd prefer a name that does not include 'Hamilton' (the event location) in it. I'm hoping for something fairly short, that's music-related, but also hints at our cause. It would be nice to have a touch of humor as well, but it's not necessary.

Extra info that may or may not help:

- It's in February (winter event)
- Incorporates all music genres
- It's a new event
- We are a group of volunteers (no company brand)
- 0ur event logo contains a pic of a microphone

If you need any additional info, just ask. Thank you SO much in advance for your help.

    A few questions in return: who are you helping in Haiti with your health project? On the other hand, what are the criteria on which it is judged?

    Look at this from the point of view of those you hope to attract and you should find naming a lot easier.

    And now for a few names - please let us know if you like them (or not):

    February Fest: Helping Haiti's Health
    Crotchets on the loose: Music competition to help haiti's health
    Healthy Crotchets: Helping healthcare project in Haiti

    Do you like any of these - or not? If you do (and it's a big "if" with that drivel) make sure you check it out with your target audience just to make sure it all chimes in.

    Thank you for your prompt response! We're helping a charity called Better Health for Haiti, and our target audience are people aged 25-50 in/around a major city. My goal with the name is to give it a bit of edge, to appeal to musicians and event-goers. I think 'helping Haiti's health' has a certain ring to it, but I'm hoping for a more music-focused name.
