I can't tell if The The is brilliant or utterly hopeless.

I think the latter.
I usually find "clever" names more of an annoyance than anything.

Glancing through my iPod:
Big Business
Black Sabbath
Flaming Lips
Fugazi
Iron Maiden
The Stooges
Even these are fine, acceptable band names:
Earth
Mudhoney
Polvo
Radiohead
Unwound
Pearl Jam is a no good, terrible thing to call your band, however. My Bloody Valentine is also no good. Blur and Ride aren't much chop either.
