Here are some sources for pub names
Seventh Sanctum Tavern Name Generator
Fantasy Name Generators: Inn Names
Tavern, Inn, and Pub name generator
One question is "what kind of performances will occur?"
Is the bard an actor? A singer? A musician?
"Lager & Lutes"
"Beer & Roses"
"Songs, Strings, and Stout"

The Quirky Yrthak? The Yodeling Yrthak? The Yummy Yrthak?
[Something] Yrthak sounds good for what you're describing. It's appropriate heraldry for a Bard. An old issue of DRAGON magazine included a legend of how the first yrthaks might have originated from a mutated/cursed Bard (or something sort of like that).

Maybe "The Singing Pig"
The Seventh Sanctum generator came up with 'The Harpy's Alehouse' (among others) when I tried it. That might work for a bard.
Using an anagram of kinnikles we get Silken Ink. Names of places don't always have to be silly or related to the business's purpose. So Sud's-n-Songs, while a great name (I'm a fan of puns/tongue-in-cheek so I'm not one to talk), is out. And you can build a nice back story with the Silken Ink pub because adventures will definitely want to know why you called it that.
But you've already got plenty of great suggestions including those generators that CrystalSeas provided. So have fun.
Oh. And if you don't like the name of the pub, you're not stuck with it. It's your world so you could have it razed to the ground by Gnomes and brought up gloriously as a different name (under new management!).
'Terpsichorean Muse'
There's a clothing store in my town called "The Bell and Sward" (Sward being another name for a green field of grass).
