171 Best Firefighting Team Names, From Funny to Heroic (Curated & Ranked) + Generator

Firefighting dates all the way back to the second century CE when the first hand water pump was invented as an attempt to stop fires.[1]

In the U.S., volunteer and private fire companies have been saving lives since the 1600s.[1]

Today, America faces more than one million fires per year — some small and some severe.[2]

While this number has been trending downward since about 2015,[2] that’s still an incredible number of fires, and firefighters have saved countless lives in their efforts.

Firefighters are community heroes but are also known to have great banter and inside jokes among themselves. Whether you want to boost your team’s morale with a tough-sounding team name or make them laugh, we have more than 160 firefighting team name ideas below.

Firefighting Team Name Generator

How to Create a Great Firefighting Team Name

As noted above, there’s a bit of a spectrum when it comes to firefighting team names, from serious to silly.

Regardless of which type of name you decide to use, keep the following tips in mind while creating your name; we used these same tips while creating our list:

  • Get inspiration from firehouse terminology and equipment. You spend long hours on the job, so you know this jargon well! Incorporate terms like “deckies,” “truckies,” and “drills” — or some that are even more obscure, if you want your team name to feel like something only insiders will understand.
  • Don’t fear the “fire.” Fire is a powerful, natural force — something that most people respect and fear. Though you spend your days fighting fires, you can use the word “fire” in your name or as an inspiration for your name. (Examples from our list include “The Fire Quelling Club,” “Fire-Resistant Fury,” and “The Fireflies.”) You can also use related words like “spark” and “inferno.”
  • Whether serious or funny, keep the name short and catchy. The best team names are usually four words or less. In general, the shorter and simpler, the better; this will make the name easier to remember and say.
