[TikiTech]

Have your team make a bunch of names and then have a vote on it.
Perhaps use something that the team is interested in as a base for a name.

Since you are going to be a rookie team the name can change.

Our rookie year we were named the Roboriders. We did not know about CD then nor did much research into team names. We were kind of thrown into FIRST by a grant that we were given, though never applied. Very overwhelmed at the beginning, so you are already doing well by being here and getting some feedback..

Our school team names are the Waveriders.. makes sense since were are in Hawaii and surfing was invented here... We were very fortunate to go to the world championships our first year..

After hearing about every variation of Robo*.* we knew our name HAD to change. We had a new name picked out by the time the plane landed.

From then on we became Tiki Technologies aka Tiki Techs!

Wonderfully there was no team name even close. Though we did kick around something with coconuts but that was used by another team, go figure, whom we have met at worlds and are a wonderful team! We didn't want to take away from their name or cause any confusion. Since it was confusing to us hearing so many variations of Robo*.*

So come up with a few names and search to see if there is something similar..

It turned out that changing our name was the best thing for us. Much easier to market our team and far more memorable.

+1 to the Washington Machines.. Funny, and you can name your robots maytag, bosch, etc..

Good luck and have fun with the naming of your team.

Aloha!
