There are plenty of theories. However, the Alice Cooper band says that this one is true: They were thinking up names for the band, and suddenly they thought of an innocent school girl that could be named Alice Cooper. But they thought the name wasn't so innocent as they pictured a girl with a hatchet behind her back.

Another theory is that a band member had a mother who was a gypsy. She put Alice Cooper's real name (Vincent Furnier) into a Ouija board and got the name Alice Cooper in response.

And dont forget,Alice Cooper was also a witch.My dad has been listening to Alice Cooper for a long time now,and he said the name came from a witch.I don't know if this is true,but Alice Cooper was definatly a witch.

Since "Alice Cooper" was originally the name of the band, and not the lead singer, and it was actually owned by the band as whole, Cooper paid, and continues to pay, a yearly royalty to his original bandmates for the right to use the name commercially.

Is Alice Cooper a man or a woman?

Although Alice is typically a woman's name, in the case of shock-rocker Alice Cooper, he is, and has always been, a man. Alice Cooper is just a stage name he came up with, claiming that he found it through the use of a ouija board and that it was the name of a witch burned at the stake many years ago. In reality, he just came up with the name because it sounded cool. In the case of Gary Cooper's mother, Alice Cooper is a woman. And this goes for any other woman named Alice whose surname (or married name) is Cooper.
