Re: New Team Name? (Poll)

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!
You are NOT alone.

Simple, concise, no inside jokes, nothing that could be construed as offensive, and ideally something memorable.

Of all the options in the poll I thought Unobtanium fit this bill the best, hands down.
