The Rob Castle Quartet.

No, strike that, it's stupid.

How about The Rob Castle Quintet.

Waaaay back when I had a Big Band at Technical High in Boston, one of my students gave it the name "Jazzmania!" (the "!" was part of the name)

That will do!

At the risk of ruining this thread, I'll provide the actual names I've given actual jazz groups I've led in recent years:

The Pacific Jazz Quartet

The Urban Jazz Ensemble

Notice a thread of continuity here?
