I have a band. There are two people in that band. I would like that band to have a name. A friend of mine thought of "Trumpet Negro" I think its splendid, but would it be construed as racist? I have other names, vote now! And if you dont like any, give me suggestions!

That depends. If you are black it isnt racist. Ive always liked the following Jim Morrison lyrics, and if I were to ever make a band (which I never will), it would be called:
Scream of the butterfly

it should be "Dog Botherer"
It's gotta be Crumpet Nanny. That is the hippest non-dog oriented name.
Then again, I'm currently in a band called daymonthyear (http://www.daymonthyear.net) and I used to be in a band called 10 Lb. Cock (http://www.go.to/10lbcock). so I don't know how much you trust my judgement.

Oh yeah and then we could call an album "Prick Starty"
My old band was a spoof of all those crusty grindcore punk bands. We called it Nihilistic Chaos on the 38th Parallel of Discharge.

Stupid Dog. Could be written as Stupid doG for added inanity. (no, I didn't forget the s)
How about:
Dog Pounder ;) or may Dog Catcher. Though both may denote some kind of scary prediction regarding the physical appearance of your future groupies, I doubt thats something you have to worry about just yet.
Oh, I have another one! : The Space Between Your Ears

They aren't trumpets either. Is that racist?

Trumpet Negro is awesome. Unfortunately it could be seen as Racist. Get a black person in your band and you'll be fine though. And make sure he/she plays the trumpet. You know. For consistency.

Stick Party.....I don't know, it has a certain ring to it.
Personally, I think you should think about what it'll look like on a sign outside the club. What'll draw them in?
Naked Women
Open Bar
10 cent cocktails
Stuff like that....btw, Open Bar is already taken....sorry.

I wouldn't bring that name to the states though.
It's deemed to be a racist term here.....

Or you could pronounce it Trump-ay Nay-gro. People will think you are a refined French New Wave band.
But i still prefer Crumpet Nanny.

I like Big Fat Man, but only if nobody in the band is a big fat man.

Call your band Zzz. That way you'll always be last alphabetically. And if someone tries naming their band Zzzzzz, you can sue them for copyright infringement.
As far as the ones you've picked, Crumpet Nanny is the best.

Nobody in the band is fat, though one is called barry.

"Trumpet Negro..." maybe you're pronouncing it like in Spanish, so it would be "Black Trumpet?" Then it wouldn't be racist, just half in Spanish or something.
