We've all heard radio stations with overused brand names like Mix, Kiss, Hot, Rock or Star. Then there's also Z, Q and B. I don't know if it's still around, but I heard a station in Illinois called the Ox. There's also the Tiger in Baton Rouge (paying homage to the hometown LSU Tigers) and a station named Candy in College Station, TX.
Also, are there radio stations that don't use overused slogans like "the #1 hit music station" or "Today's best music" ?
I submit "105.7 Man Up!", WVBZ in the Triad region (Winston-Salem, Greensboro, High Point) of North Carolina. It's apparently one of the newer formats that iHeart Radio is trying. When I happened across it on the dial, I was sure it was one of those parody "joke" formats. But no. Toxic masculinity for the masses!

102-9 The Whale (WDRC) in Hartford. Pays homage to the former NHL team, and even incorporates their colors in their logo.
You also have 100.7 The Bay in Baltimore (Westminster), and you used to have 103-7 The Shark in Atlantic City.
We have 92.5 The Zoo (WZUU) here in Kalamazoo.

I'm surprised this type of radio marketing hadn't happened sooner. I'm guessing that the Rock / Classic Rock format audience is probably 75% male. Probably hosted by some morning show that focuses on which brand of light beer you drank last night and how many drunken phone calls ensued, followed by new stories about how someone lost their testicles while playing with knives.
Let's face it, the other end of the spectrum is the Adult Contemporary audience, where the prime listeners are likely 90% female, if the lyrics, playlist, "radio personalities", and advertising are anything to go by.
Stations like "Frank FM" in Lewiston, ME (WFNK-FM 107.5) which is targeted for Portland or "95-7 BEN-FM" (WBEN-FM 95.7) in Philadelphia? Philly also used to have "Wired 96.5" a few years ago. Providence, RI has WPRO-FM 92.3, a.k.a. "92 PRO-FM", a long running CHR/Top 40 station.

I wouldn't be that surprised, iHeartRadio and its parent company had it coming to them, which is why they declared bankruptcy protection early last year.
I know there's a hip-hop station in Atlanta that calls itself "The People's Station." I know there was a similar station in Washington DC that used that same moniker in the past as well. Sounds unique to me.
92.1 the Twister in Houghton Lake, MI (incidentally, its sister station is 98.5 UPS)
I remember when WLIT 93.9 called themselves "The Lite", as opposed to "Lite FM" (which, incidentally, is their nickname now).
When I was growing up, 99.5-FM here in the DC area had an "easy listening" format and the call letters WGAY. The combination of those call letters with that style of music led to all sorts of jokes that were quite commonplace in that era but nowadays would be considered (by most people, anyway) extremely tasteless.
Back in the early 1990s, 95.1-FM in Charlottesville was "Heat 95." Then they suddenly changed it to "Z-95" without changing their format or call letters or anything else. Supposedly the FCC had some objection to "Heat-95," but I never found out what.

Likely V103 in Atlanta. A lot of hip-hop stations tend to use that moniker. Either that or "blazin' hip-hop and R&B" .

WJMN-FM 94.5 of Boston is currently Hip-Hop "Jam'n 94.5", owned by I-Heart Media. It was once WZOU-FM until either the early or mid-1990s.
I would like to see someday a radio station called The Bitch or Bitch 100 or something. It was inspired by this girl I knew who was a proud bitch in her own words. Now that words like Asswipe and Pissed Off can be said on airwaves I am sure it would be allowed. Heck the FCC only cares about the call letters being announced every top of the hour, not nicknmes.
Is Magic 107 one? I never heard Magic used before. Magic 107 is a station in Orlando that once played light rock first starting with the Barry Manilow, Barbara Streisand, and Neil Diamond kick before moving on to just top 40 light rock fro heavier sounding music in the mid 90's when the demographics changed. Now they are a top 40 radio station like many others (only in December they preempt their programming for Christmas Music) with songs from Christina Augulera and even some R & B with a harder sound as demographics changed again this past decades. However Magic still remains as the nickname though it went from Magic 107.7 to Magic 107.

Branding a station–typically classic or "hard" rock–after a wild or ferocious animal is very common. It's common enough that when I attended a Sklar Brothers standup act once, they did a routine about this. They asked "Do you have a rock station in town named after an animal?" This was near the Lehigh Valley, and sure enough, there's "99.9 - The Hawk" . The Sklars proceeded to do an absurd impression the growling, guttural ID voiceovers that these stations seem to have.

I do recall the other Hawk stations, 105.7 and 94.5/97.5.
There was a radio station called Loop 101 back in the late 1990s/early 2000s in the Phoenix area. It was on 101.1 FM, call letters were KESP, then KAZL.
WWMJ (95.7 FM) serves the Bangor area in Maine. It's known as I-95 on-air. Their slogan is "I-95 rocks"
http://www.i95rocks.com/
WIAL in Eau Claire, WI goes by I-94 as the interstate passes by Eau Claire and the frequency is 94.1
I bet there was only one Clu 132.
What's even rarer than really dumb station names is the ones that use the fraction ½. The old WLAP-FM in Lexington used to be called Power 94½.
WXRC (95.7 in Charlotte) is called the RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDE (yes, it's actually pronounced that way). Plays a lot of deep cut songs.
I got sick of 105.7 (I live in Statesville, so I can pick both stations up quite well). They started out playing songs a lot of other stations don't play, but now it's all the same songs other stations play. And I about planted a permanent signal scrambler to the building when they kept teasing that opening riff to Shinedown's Sound of Madness and started a commercial. And the MAYEEEEUNNNN jokes are getting old.

Some of them are a stretch. One local AM station in my area opened an FM licensee and got the call letters WCYO, and it promptly dubbed itself "The Coyote." Yep, a country station.
There are a lot of "The Bull" stations around but only Lexington's 98.1 FM, WBUL, got call letters to match.

So, what's so toxically masculine (I dispute the whole concept of "toxic masculinity," BTW, which probably surprises no one here) about it? Their playlist looked like a mixture of 90s alternative (Bush, The Offspring) and classic 70s (Boston.) Do the DJs tell flatulence jokes between songs?
The Big Wazoo (WAZU) started out as a hard rock/metal station in Dayton, Ohio in the '80s then moved 100 miles away to Circleville, Ohio in the '90s as a metal-only station before going nu-metal/alternative and disappearing in the 2000s.

Yes, G-ville has it, but that one has been a new country music station since October 2010 (although before then, it had been known as Rock 104 since 1983, playing AOR aka album-oriented rock, and before that, it was briefly a Top 40 style hit radio station from 1981 to 1983, much to the disfavor of many of the important powers at UF; before 1981, the station was known for many years, perhaps since its sign-on in 1948, as Stereo 104, except for a late-disco-era Saturday-night music program from 1979 to 1980 called Studio 104).
One of our local stations has decided to start calling itself "Bob."
"Bob plays anything from the 80s, 90s or whatever!" "Bob does this." "Bob likes that." And they have 90 minute, commercial free, "Bob-a-thons."
Their call letters are WCVS so it makes no sense at all.

Maybe they should start a health-and-wellness-oriented format, given their call sign.
I don't think any of the ones around here are particularly dumb. A few years ago calling stations by men's names like "Bob" or "Frank" or "Jim" was a thing, but it went out of style. We also had a guy who called multiple stations "The Planet.
We do still have:
- WDGG "The Dog" (country)
- WBVB "B 97, The Bee" (80s oldies)
- WAMX "The Brew" (southern rock, more or less)
- WQBE, which is, for reasons that escape me, "The Rabbit Station". Same company owns a similar station in several other places, each with a guy in a country-fied rabbit suit as the mascot.
- WMXE "The Mix" (music for post menopausal women)
- WKAZ "Tailgate Radio" (format free idiocy)
On the AM side, everybody wants to copy NYC's WFAN. We have WBES "The Sports Fox", WMON "The Jock", WCMI "The Cat" (UK sports).

Only a matter of time before it won't be cool to copy that station.
EDIT: We've had Planet Radio here since 1995. It was originally at 93.3 FM, but was moved to 107.3 FM after its first ten years (1995-2005). Unfortunately it only lasted five years at its second home (2005-2010). They brought back Planet Radio on W247CF aka 97.3 FM back in 2016, but that only lasted three years (2016-2019) before they moved Planet Radio back to 107.3 FM earlier this year.
I remember the Florida Keys had a station called A1A after the road.
Years ago there was an I95 nickname someplace in Florida as well.
The Coast was another.
Zana 4 in Miami was the Classic Rock Station there in the late 1980's and even into the 90's.

In Chicago, there was the Killer Bee, which was what B96 called itself until a few years ago. So one nickname probably inspired the other, which wouldn't be surprising, given that both stations were once owned by CBS/Infinity Radio.

I remember the Florida Keys had a station called A1A after the road.
Years ago there was an I95 nickname someplace in Florida as well.
The Coast was another.
Zana 4 in Miami was the Classic Rock Station there in the late 1980's and even into the 90's.
There's a station on the east coast of Florida that calls itself A1A.
I was gonna mention that one, it's in Melbourne along the Space Coast.
