Quick answer
A good clown name is silly, bouncy and easy for kids to shout, like "Giggles", "Sprinkles McGee" or "Bubbles Von Honk". Party clowns use friendly, sweet-sounding names, while Halloween and horror characters use a cute name with a sinister twist, like "Mister Smiles". Pair a funny first name with an over-the-top surname for a full stage name.
Pick a style, then generate a clown name idea.
Clown names are meant to make people smile before the show even starts. The best ones repeat sounds (Pogo, Bubbles, Jingles), describe the clown's personality, or sound gloriously over the top.

Stephen King's Pennywise from It is the most famous scary clown. If you are creating a horror character, keep the cheerful clown pattern and let the costume and story do the frightening.
How to build a clown persona
Start with one personality trait: clumsy, bossy, shy, overexcited. Pick a name that matches it (Wobbles for clumsy, Professor for bossy). Add a signature prop or catchphrase. Working clowns often keep the same name for years, so check that it is not already used by another performer in your area before you print business cards.
