How to choose a name that does not suck

The best name is short enough for your fantasy app, understandable without a five minute explanation and funny when the commissioner reads the standings aloud. Player puns are strongest after the draft because they match your roster. Draft, trade and waiver jokes last longer because they still make sense after your tenth questionable transaction.

If two names are tied, post both in the group chat. The one that gets the fastest angry reaction is probably the winner. Naming a real team instead? Browse beer league hockey team names. Need material for the group chat? Raid the Hockey Chirp Library or the collection of best hockey chirps.
