It is indeed a great name. A stroke of genius, really; catchy and memorable, and only two syllables, and everybody knows it due to the whole "Mos Eisley" things...

I think Eisley sounds better than MossEisley anyway, it's got a sort of ring to it.

Just as a newbie, where did this name come from? I know it was originally Moss Eisley...did they just get it from that? cool. I dig that.

Yeah, they got it from Moss Eisley. But because of George Lucas's "Mos Eisley" in Star Wars, they decided to shorten it to Eisley. I personally like Moss Eisley better.

They asked eisley about it. btw. everyone was glad to see mosseisley go.
Eisley is way better. I remember the eve they decided - under much pressure. That' was an intense 15 minutes.

Speaking as a design dude ... the Non-Moss logos and such look better because of the simplicity, too. I love the one where all the letters are staggared ... or the baseline is shifted ... whatever.

i kinda liked the prefixory moss... it just seemed to make it sound more naturey. i mean no bands i listened were named after undergrowth before and i love undergrowth. its one of my favorite things.

i can't complain about the name change though. eisley is much catchier. albeit not as "green"...

Well Stephen,...when I talked to George...he was
going on and on and talking about his attorneys and "blah, blah,
blah"...and I just said, "George shut-up and....talk to the hand" and he
was like, "no...my attorney's will take you out Mr. B." and I was like, "Oh
NO THEY WON'T mr. george "chewbaca" lukas...." and he started
swinging wildly and I ducked...and he hit Chauntelle; (Woah, nobody hit's
Chauntelle, right?) So I rammed him head-long with a full force neck
punch... THUDK! and ole George just started
spinning around and spewing and spitting and said, "UNCLE!! I GIVE, I
GIVE!...THEY CAN NAME THEIR STUPID KID BAND MOSSEISLEY!!"
but I just looked at his pathetic self, lying there...and said, "you can take
your MOSS and shuv it, George". Then turning, I calmly said, "Come on
Chauntelle (who had a black eye and messy hair), let's go."

And on the way out, I heard him mutter something like..."but..but...do
you want to be in the movies? I take it back...I... I...
sLaM!!!

And...well, that's how it happened.

but if it's "Mos Eisley" in Star Wars, then couldn't you have just left one of the s's? Seisley.
