Hey, it happens, right? I mean, my team name "The Gears" is definitely going to be used again eventually, and it could have even been used before we had it. Though I hope not. (Sorry, other Gears! I promise we had no idea!) No one copies a name with malicious intent. There are coincidences, and teams homaging the same thing at the same time. (I wonder how many robots have been named Dean or Woody?)

The above theory that Robocats is the most common name is probably absolutely right. On the other hand, most rookie teams don't go in knowing everything about FIRST. You're not going to know that there's another Tigertron, or SuperBot, or whatever. Life goes on.
