Well the name Godzilla is trademarked, so that might not be the best idea.

What the post after yours said, also it just doesn't sound that appealing, it sounds silly.

Granted the name Gojira is also trademarked, but seeing as how that name's only really used in Asian versions of the Godzilla movies they may not be too concerned with a band using the name Gojira in the west.

I wouldn't chance it. Some companies are very defensive of their intellectual properties.

Just looked it up, and yeah, the band Gojira was originally named Godzilla, but had to change the name due to a legal threat. Evidently they didn't mind the band using the name Gojira though.

I forgot to put it in my post that there's a French band named Gojira.

Horrible, horrible name. It sounds like you just wanted to combine two things you thought were cool as opposed to actually being creative with the band name.

I mean, what the hell does the name even mean? That Godzilla is now a robot? That doesn't even make sense. :?

to avoid issues, I have fixed it for you: Your band name is now, "large scaly mechanical monster with lights and attitude." No need to thank me.

sounds like a bad crunk-core (is there good crunk-core, well no) band/group name, so i'd say it's not good. also, as others have said there would be some big legal issues.

Doesn't sound like you want people to take your band seriously when they hear your name. Unless of course you are going for a Tenacious D sort of thing I would recommend against it.

It sounds rather generic to be honest. Plus, like I said, the name's trademarked by the Toho company, and they've shown in the past that they will take legal action to protect the name, so you're going to run into issues there.

Sounds like a side project of the bands Dismember and Dying Fetus.
