Re: New Team Name? (Poll)
I see a lot of teams with interesting team names/branding based on their school or something unique about them. It's best if it is meaningful to the team members. It's also nice to have a straight forward name. A lot of your suggestions are so complicated that you'd end up with a nickname by day 1 at your first event. I may be alone on this, but I dislike team names that are designed to cause confusion and/or frustration (people may laugh once, but then hate the name for the rest of the event).
Shockwave, for example, was created when the team started with the school's mascot (a wave called Tide Guy) and brand (Crimson Tide) and wanted to tie it into robotics and engineering. Thus, the electrical shock was introduced and the Shockwave name and logo was created.
Best of luck to you and your team!
