How to Create a Good Black Team Name
Keep the following tips in mind when brainstorming your own black-themed team name:
- Make a list of inspirations. From stylish sunglasses to spooky bats, there are a lot of things — from objects to animals and everything in between — that are black. Make a list of these to use for inspiration. You can either list your favorites, or just look around your house or browse the internet to find a wide variety of options.
- Get inspiration from songs and movies. Songs and movies sometimes use the color “black” in their titles. This is one of the easiest ways to find a black team name — just search the word on a movie database like IMDb or music platform like Spotify. You’ll find familiar and lesser-known pop culture inspirations for your team name.
- Put a positive spin on it. While it’s a powerful color (or lack of), black is sometimes associated with unlucky or unhappy things — like black cats and dark clouds. Flip these representations on their heads by putting a positive spin on them, such as with our list’s example of “The Lucky Black Cats.”
