Combat and fighting have seemingly always been a part of human history, and even the closest living species to humans, chimpanzees, use spears as weapons against other primates.[1]
Despite advancements like weapons, vehicles, and armor,[1] hand-to-hand combat is still regularly seen. In fact, we’ve made sports out of it!
Look no further than boxing, jiu-jitsu, professional wrestling, and MMA, for example.[2] World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) are each worth several billion dollars![3][4]
If you need a tough and combative name for your fighting team, you’ve come to the right place.

How to Create a Cool Fighting Team Name
There are many ways to create a cool fighting team name. You can go abstract and use a phrase unrelated to fighting that sounds tough, or you can take inspiration from fighting itself — the moves, the equipment, or less specific terms like “combat.”
Since fighting-related sports are all about intimidation and person-to-person battles, the best team names will be those that serve a dual purpose: making the opposing team or fighter shake in their boots, and motivating your team to do well.
Include active words that convey strength and skill, like “fast,” “champions,” “ready,” or “hit.”
To be sure that your team name isn’t just tough-sounding but also the right fit for your team, consider choosing the name collectively.
If you decide not to narrow down our list above to your favorite picks and choose one, you can have members of your team brainstorm suggestions, then take a vote on which one suits the team best!
