Since our last campaign ended in a TPK (total pirate kill), we started up Mummy's Mask, and our group chose the adventuring party name Shining Scarab.
We have a human witch, a human druid, a human ranger, an elf fighter, a human cleric, and a human oracle. Two members of the party worship Sarenrae (Shining) and all of the group are from Osirion and wish to see their culture preserved (Scarab).

Rubs hands together excitedly
What a handsome and interesting group!
I am excited to see how Professor McCreary, ahem.. entertains you with our plethora of dynamic challenges. Watch that first step.

Ooh! I left out the seventh member of our group—my character's scorpion vermin companion!

We have a group of Abadar worshipers that use Golden Bolt.
When the deity book came out, one of my older groups, who all worshiped Irori, wanted to rename their group. The two "face" characters were Tyre and Mack. The wanted Rebus Mack and Tyre.
The most fun group we have was all minitaur themed and ran with Bovine Intervention.

So my PC was slotted to be a Pathfinder, just like her father. But events transpired during her first mission and she was left for dead. Her father had her body recovered and revived, but the process left a nasty black spiderweb scar across her face and neck. The experience left her with distaste for the Society, so she headed to foreign lands to make her fortune.
After meeting with some like-minded individuals, they formed a group and entered the lottery to explore the necropolis. At the registration table, they were told their team needed a name. Short on both time and ideas, someone in the party blurted out "Pharasma's Kiss," after the necrotic scar on her neck.
Perfect.

Yep, can't avoid a bit of that one. Their other big choice was, ahem, Hogan-Tep's Heroes.
In-character, they use the Gyrefalcons, since actually telling the church of Pharasma that they're the Plundercats would probably be a bit... inappropriate. But that's just a DBA, really.

Our group was initially going to go by Pharaoh's Favoured, but decided that maybe the local populace might take offense to these foreigners claiming to be the favoured of their leaders.
They went with Fortune's Favoured. The Harrower in the party dug it a lot more. The mercenary types in the party have a different understanding of "fortune," but they dig it nonetheless.

Fortunes Favoured I like that. You can steal Avery Brooks line from DS9 "Fortune favors the bold!"

The group I'm GM'ing selected the name "Murder Hobo Suicide Squad" because they felt like it fit what every Pathfinder party is. They go through, they kill everyone, they have no homes and it's basically a giant suicide mission every time they enter a dungeon. It's become a permanent phrase for what a Pathfinder party is.

My party has only 3 players so gm gave us a npc that we made together. It is a witch and as we were looking at familiar we picked monkey and then the archetype sage, the rest of the party is not that smart so likely we will be following the monkeys advice. So we picked the name monkeys paw. I hope things won't go badly for us.

The party I'm GMing for went with Lucky's Raiders
Lucky (human,bard(Archaeologist)) being the talkative face of the party and therefore defacto leader
Lucky died at the end of last session, so not sure if the group will change name or leave it as a honorific to there dear fallen comrade or as it more likely just never bother changing it

The group I'm GMing for is the Varrus Vanguard. One of the party members is a wealthy Taldan nobleman named Constantine Varrus. He took the rich parents trait and the idea is he's funding the expedition and has hired/ recruited the other members. (Which in and of itself is pretty funny, as the group consists of an incredibly cursed teenaged oracle, a teenaged paladin who is saving up for her future wedding, and an elderly halfling shaman. He's not good at finding typical adventurers.)
