Give your answer to this question below!
hmm
i like it
i mean
its not that original
but i haven’t heard of a big band with that name so i say go ahead
another idea for a band name would be totem pole
Shaman of Cherokees…there you go
Sounds a little new age-y and kind of pretentious to me. How about Trail of Tears?
it is just good..
Love the name ‘Shaman’…”Native Spirit” is nice; or even “Shaman Spirit”…Good luck to you and your band!
Only if you’re stoner rock
“Shaman” would be a good name if your band is Russian as “Shaman” is a Russian, not Native American, word. http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/shaman
Eh. What others say, the whole issue of the word not really originating from here…
What would it even symbolize? I don’t get the feeling you’d be picking it really for any other reason other than it might sound neat. But what would actually symbolize your band?
Why not something more like Good __something__ Medicine (probably been done though lol), or something that would have symbolic meaning to you personally that ties in with your sound or perspective of the music style. Maybe even a word or two in the Cherokee or Apache language. Play a while and see if it comes to you.
Aside from that…”Shaman” would be a bit difficult to design a logo around as it is.
