I always thought that "I am a Rock" was such a stupid Stand name and should have been "Gravity of Love".

The World --> Holy Diver makes too much sense to me. I feel like Araki was originally going to make that the stands name before going with the Tarot theme

I think they're all perfectly fine except for "Doggystyle" which desperately needs a name change.

ok first off how dare you

Bad thread altogether, but I feel like araki does good enough with stand names, so maybe a thread called stand ideas? Just saying.

I'd like to see 'Gypsy' by Fleetwood Mac and 'Vooddoo Lady" as a stand ability...think of how cool they would be!

Honestly, it would be a shame to change any of the stand names, especially since they are all created from the ideas and lyrics from within their references. I don't think you should just name a stand something that sounds cool or fits their powers, it should be the context of that reference that defines their traits as a stand.


Part 6 Spoilers

Though, If I were to pick a stand to rename in this manner, I guess I'd change Weather Report (annoys me because of the confusion between user and stand) to Last Surprise (Persona 5). It's not only a song referencing sudden changes in the weather, but also contains a tone that makes the singer sure of victory, which would apply to (see spoiler tab) later on. It also has the persistent use of sudden appearances, especially at the end of part 6, (see spoiler tab).

STAND NAME: Space Oddity. (David Bowie) This stand is omnipresent, I mean, totally ignores the fourth dimension (which is time) and can be in several places at once ... it's just an idea, I'm really bored
