Names for the Trio

March 3, 2007 at 10:36 PM

I just thought of a couple names for the trio. I need responses now. Just put the number.

1. The Up-Bow Trio
2. The Down-Bow Trio
3. The Prestissimo Trio
4. The 96 String Trio
5. The MAX Trio

(MAXi s the first letter of all our middle initials.)

Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

Why not something from another language?

Like "The String Crazy Trio".
(Is is a string trio?)

In Italian it would be something like "La cordicella Matta Trio"...or you could try it in German...or French.

First choice = 5,
Second choice = 3.
Third choice = none of the others as they all suck. :)

Oh, and Elizabeth, unless I'm very much mistaken, "pretissimo" is Italian, which for some may be considered another language that is not English. :):)

You. You are forbidden from ever coming up with names again.
I fear for your future children.
Oh, so very, very much.

That being said...hmmm, I'd say go with something classier. Perhaps in a romantic language?

Greetings,
even the armadillo trio is better than these. even though it sound s like a cross between an Italian violin and a sex toy...
Cheers,

Sorry, It's now a quartet. And we'll probably go with The 100 String Quartet.
