59 Best Cheer Team/Cheerleading Squad Names (Curated & Ranked) + Generator
Cheerleading’s roots date back to 1898 when University of Minnesota med student Johnny Campbell assembled a team to cheer on the school’s football team from the sidelines during a losing streak.
Talking the group through an organized cheer with a megaphone, Johnny Campbell is often considered the very first cheerleader.[1]
By the mid-1920s, cheerleading was a co-ed sport and began incorporating elements of acrobatics, gymnastics, dance, and tumbling.[1][2]

How to Create Your Own Cheer Squad Name
Cheerleading isn’t just waving pom-poms around — it’s a sport that takes a lot of discipline and skill. Your cheer team name should be bold and powerful.
Create your own cheer squad name using the following tips:
- Use words that have uplifting meanings. Consider positive and uplifting words like “elite” and “fearless” to project a great vibe for your cheer squad. Start by making a list of words that your team finds motivating and inspiring; you can look up synonyms to create an even wider range of possibilities.
- Pick a word that describes your cheer team collectively. Think about your team members’ strengths and talents. Build a team name off of a word that reflects your team as a whole. You might even want to take suggestions from the team or take a vote on which words are most reflective of your aura.
- Adapt some of the choices on our list. If you don’t find your perfect cheer squad name above, you can use our names as a jumping-off point for inspiration.
