Dittybox


According to the online free dictionary a ditty-box is a small box to hold a sailor's thread, needless, comb, etc.

I came across it as a single word, while looking round a naval museum in Portsmouth, where it appeared as the title of a Royal Navy magazine, a sort of internal publication for sailors, and thought it would be a great name for a band.

Any type of band could work under the name Dittybox. Although it has a meaning it is totally obscure to just about anyone who has not been to sea. I would like to see an indie band called Dittybox but then I like to see indie bands anyway.
