No offense, but none of the names you suggested do it for me, IMHO.

You are an acoustic duo, so how about "Spruce Deuce"? Just a suggestion.

Wasn't "NoBozos" the name of a punk band on an episode of "Law and Order" once?

Groove Union
or
Union Grove

works for me

Here's another great tip I forgot to mention.

I call it the "Water Cooler Test."

Pick a name. Go to work and, during the usual morning coffee-scrum in the break room, pick the youngest/hippest/cutest/etc. person you can find and tell it to them.

If you can do that without feeling like an idiot, it's probably a good name.

I'm 50. I work with a bunch of 20-somethings.

"Hey, Cheryl... I came up with a name for my band... what do you think of HAMMERWOOKIE?"

Just picture it, and the likely reaction, for a moment.

Now repeat with Groove Union. Different image, no?

Yeah, I know. Hammerwookie is one of those names that would probably work for a while as intended, that is to say that it would be something that would be hard to forget. The thing is, I think after a while, it would lose it's charm and just be annoying. Although I do think it would be an ideal name for a metal/thrash band.
