This name is "assigned by FIRST" when you register and list your sponsors. Some teams have a lot, some have none, some just have the school or organization.


Nickname: What you'd rather be known as, because the official name is just too long. (Examples: Cyber Blue, Bionic Bulldogs, C.R.U.S.H.)


I believe all you need to do for the nickname is to check with the team as to whether you like the one you've got or not, and if not what to change it to, and then you go into TIMS and change the "Nickname" slot.
What EricH said. Nickname is easily changeable in TIMS by the Main or Alternate Contact. Team number is not easily changed.
