Our team has a slight problem . We've been The Penguins for the last two years (before we where the Mystery Machine, but we changed it to avoid possible copyright issues), but our school's The Flyers. We've been getting pressure from the principal and superintendant to change it for the past year, (especially since we won nationals). How many people have had this problem or ones similar to it, and how did you solve it? Thanks for responding.

You calmly but sternly expain that you have established recognition as The Penguins, and mention that changing names at this juncture could severely impact the potential benefits of that recognition. Then, explain that, as a team, we've discussed the issue and decided to maintain our name and identity as it is.

That's it.
