How to Create a Great Family Team Name
As you can see in our list above, the best family team names include a couple of elements: family- or friend-related words and references that everyone in the room will understand.
Consider the following tips if you decide to create your own family team name:
Use your last name… or don’t.
Using your last name as an element of your team name is a simple and obvious way to come up with a name.
If your last name sounds like another word, you share it with a famous historical figure, etc., you can easily come up with puns or wordplay inspired by it.
However, because this tip is so obvious, you may also want to do the opposite! For a truly unique team name, avoid using your last name altogether — especially if there are a lot of teams that might pick a similar name, such as at a family reunion.
Consider who is in your group.
Are you on a team with your parents and siblings? Or perhaps you’re paired with your siblings only, or cousins?
Considering the people in your group can help guide your team name if you choose to include direct reference’s to the group’s relationship, like “fam,” “cuz,” or “sisters.”
Call on pop culture.
Is there a sitcom you used to watch with your family? A favorite movie that you and your siblings have watched dozens of times?
You can get inspiration from the title, character names, or famous quotes for your team name.
This can be particularly fun if you have teams divided along generational lines — you’ll quickly see the differences in favorite films, TV shows, and music!
