I don't think it's a "godawful" name, but when I first heard of Moby Grape at 12 years old and I thought that it was some new grape jam by Smuckers or something.

Mr. Mister - This actually may be a good name as the music is as dire as the name implies.
Therapy? - Do they expect people to say their name in the form of a question?
That Dog. - The period is unacceptable.
fIREHOSE - Basically, no band name should have punctuation. Neu! is the only exception.
The one that is like Red Jumpsuit Apparatus or something like that.
Good Charlotte - Charlotte would be more accurate.
Nirvana - Dudes should have known the name was taken.
Red Hot Chili Peppers
I think it's a "cool" name, but it's so long and there doesn't seem to be an agreed upon nickname. If I said "The Peppers" I don't think it would be obvious what I was referring to. And RHCP is just an awkward acronym.
Insane Clown Posse
KoRn
America
I feel like it's a bit of a bold name to title a band with. Plus, I feel like I always have to clarify, "America the band, I mean the name of the band is America."
Mid / late 2010s indie bands have the worst names.
I remember making a list of 'worst band name ever' one day with a friend in hi school (around 2006). We had another friend who was heavy into that stuff and I used to tease him all the time about it. Anyway, I just turned to him and asked:
'Hey, Alex; what are your current favorite new bands?' I suppose he was surprised by my interest in such genres, so he answered with lots of enthusiasm:
'Well, Menomena is probably my favorite right now'. It went directly to the list.
Others I can think of:
Confunkshun
Does It Offend You, Yeah?
Kashmir
Sonic Youth (I might get slaughtered for this one, but I loathe that name)
