Informal survey, 2 questions.
Q1: Do any or all of the following names offend you?
Q2: If not, do any of them stand out as dramatically more awesome than the others?
Current suggestions:
1. Pussy Posse
2. Itty Bitty Titty Committee
3. Possibly Pussy
4. Possibly Pussy Posse
Also feel free to add your own ideas. We are a troupe of 6 hilarious women performing improv comedy, starting with short-form but working our way up to long-form. If ya know what I mean ;-)

I think you could come up with something a little more intelligently humorous and witty.
None of those names offend me, and I doubt your audience would have much of an issue with them either, going by what I know of improv comedy. My favourite is Pussy Posse.
I don’t mind the pussy names. It’s interesting because it makes me wonder if this is a group of feminists reclaiming some heritage, or if it is a group of retro women who want something completely different. Or maybe both. I like Pussy Posse.

Itty Bitty…is the name of a movie, so you might have copyright issues with that one.
The names do not offend me, but they might offend some who would otherwise be interested in your comedy troupe.
That’ll make an impression!
Personally, I like the Raging Vah-jay-jays.
@Bronny A lot of vagina names were thrown around. Vagitarians was one. The thing is, we would be open to having men, LGBTQQ, etc. folks join the troupe eventually, so we don’t want to make it sound like a vagina’s a prerequisite.
The Bizzy Lizzys.
That’ll cost you a pair of tickets to one of your gigs when you make it big – if you adopt it.
Gasp! The Dog’s Bollocks! That’s it! @Bronny, you’re a genius!
WOOHOO!!!!! I would love to see your travelling Dog’s Bollocks hahaha.
Here were some other ideas that came in on Facebook:
Via Rew: Voluptuous Vixen Vagabonds, Fatal Femme Fiends, Her Hysterical Hilarity Hands, Tits Fits, Snits for Bits,
Via me: Ship o’ Hips? Wide Hips? [Something] Hips? Hip ship! Hip ship, hooray!
Via Rew: Ship o’ lips & tits, inc
NO COVER, DRINKS ARE FREE <——- that would be a good name. It’s your name, not a promise.
Haha @Ltryptophan! Love it. Am seriously diggin’ The Dog’s Bollocks, though. I’m such an Eddie Izzard fan, I’d love the inter-referencing.
The Twatettes floats my boat. or twa-tets
@Ltryptophan sounds more like an all girl group from the 50’s and 60’s
Is the Twats already a male comedy troop? lol
There’s something very andrew dice clay going on here…I can’t quite put my finger on it…
Nomadic Nancies. Chuckling Cherries (Nuts and Berries). Freedom Nipples.
@Bronny I like Freedom Nipples, sounds very promising…definitely worth a look.
Haha. This is fun.
Lipstick Slapstick?
Travelling Transgenderlings.
@Bronny to the Lipstick Slapstick,I reply, The Jestering Labia’s
Ummm….uhhh…well…seeing three pussy names in a row just leaves me dumbstruck. Can’t think…must try…..
I don’t care for any of them. I’m not offended, but I find them vulgar. That suggests to me that the tone of the entertainment would be in the same vein, and I wouldn’t be interested.
So if I’m not the sort of person you want to attract, no problem.
Unless…
If you’d be wanting to advertise your troupe anywhere public, or in general-interest publications, you might want to be sure that the name you choose doesn’t run afoul of any magazine editorial and advertising policies. You might call up, say, the entertainment listings section of your local paper and ask if they would accept an ad for a group with any of those names. You might also find out if there’d be any local regulations that would restrict where you can put posters, have a marquee, pass out handbills, etc. Depending on where you live, that might or might not be a consideration.
The Dog’s Bollocks will pass Jeruba’s test here…
Yes the Vagina Monologues was so politically correct.~
I like the dogs bollocks and anything that doesn’t have pussy or va haheeny or tits ma jits or any of that. I’m not offended, its just so meh.. every town has a female play, one woman show, comedy troupe, etc and on called something like that
@trailsillustrated good point, you are right. it’s an overdone statement….to the drawing boards!
How bout…. A Fistfull of Donna$
see, I really like @JeffVader ‘s suggestion – anything but womany tits pussy pms vagina names….
And the winner is…
That’s What She Said.
We opened tonight to a packed house at K&S Ranchito in Oakland, and everyone I talked to afterwards said we were great.
Couldn’t have done it without the name! ;-)
Thanks, Flutherers!
@maudie Thats excellent news…. when can we expect to see you on YouTube then :)
Here’s the first of the videos. More coming, as fast I can get them to compress (I have a bad video editing setup right now. Prolly some Fluther questions will come out of that).
Anyhoo:
