Team Names Ideas

So, how does one come up with a good team name? Brainstorming sometimes works. This is especially true for generating a name that meets the specific needs of your team’s purpose. You can get team names from movie and song titles, song lyrics, TV commercial slogans, and television show characters. Just look around you for a myriad of ideas for perfect team names.

However, team name ideas can be elusive. Try the following to generate the perfect team name:

• Involve all the team members in choosing a team name.
  Use brainstorming to get your teammates started. Including everyone in the choice of your team’s name will insure they all like the result.
• Choose words associated with popular things, such as songs, movies, or pop culture icons.
  Sometimes just one word from a song or movie makes a perfect team name.
• Choose an adjective.
  Adjectives are great for projecting a certain team trait and finding a unique team name. Try using colors or numbers to start your team name. Additionally, you can use a thesaurus to find synonyms for common adjectives.
• Choose catchy and memorable words.
  You want others to remember your team name, especially if there are several teams or you participate in repeated activities, such as trivia nights, with your team.
• Add words related to your team activity.
  Using words related to your team activity or composition works well in the workplace and for sports or activity teams. Gender specific names, job assignments, and physical traits all work well.
