The Flower Kings is a nice name.

I dislike Asia, myself! [ Horrible band, horrible name. ]

Camel and Can aren't really the most immaginative names I've heard, as well, I'd say.

I think Can is a very good name - it doesn't mean only the thing you store food in, but also "to be able to do something"; in Turkish it means "life" and "soul"; in Chinese - "feelings", "emotions" and "love". This multitude of positive meanings was the reason they adopted this name in the first place.

Although I agree with some of your choices, 'weird' doesn't have to mean 'bad'.

"Marsupilami" are named after an animal from a French comic book series, "Spirou et Fantasio". It looks like a Jaguar with an extremely long tail and even made its way on a French stamp.
