My team has had two names... The Lions, and The Sea Dawgs. We were the Lincoln Lions because our school mascot is a lion. When we were the Lions our robots names were "Robox" (it was a plywood box), and "Alion" (Al = Aluminum and lion for the lions.. it was funny at the time). We came up with The Sea Dawgs because we were frustrated with the lack of support we were getting from our school. Since they didn't want to either give us money, give us space to work, or promote our team in any way we decided to try to cut them out of our name. We wanted to have a pirate theme. So we looked up the word 'pirate' in a thesauras and found sea dog. We changed the spelling a little and the rest is history.
