My advice: You've built a solid brand as Team T.H.R.U.S.T. I'd want a lot more than teenagers with warped minds to trigger a change of name.

Please don't give into the PC weenies... and don't mess with your teams identity. Yous have built up a good reputation with that name and your teams image so stick with it. As others have said... there will always be some that will twist anything around. Just tell them to get their minds out of the gutter.
FYI: Kentucky Fried Chicken is going through just this kind of thing. They first changed the name to KFC and now cause "fried is unhealthy" in some minds. They are changing the name again to Kentucky Grilled Chicken. But keeping the fried chicken as their major product. Just sit back and watch their sales go further down and the scramble for another name.
