Re: Team Names, Marketing, and Funny Name Stuff
My team is based in Dulaney High School, so when we registered we simply used 'Dulaney Robotics'.
Rookie year we mulled over the names, and eventually found REX, because it is latin for king, like our school mascot, the lion. A close second was
'Team ROFLCOPTER' (This is still available- I highly recommend it!). We have been REX ever since.
The benefit of having one short name is that your name and number go together. We usually 'REX 1727'. Sometimes an announcer will say
"...in the red on the far side of the field, its team 1727 REEEEX!"
Also in our school, non robotics students sometimes just say "hey Rex!" to get a REX member's attention.
Bottom line: find a memorable name and stick with it!
