63 Best Purple Team Names

Purple is a fantastic color that symbolizes royalty, encouragement, and wisdom.[1]

While it isn’t the most common color for teams, it may be a perfect choice for yours! After all, the purple-suited Los Angeles Lakers hold many records and have 17 championship appearances under their belts.[2][3]

Hopefully, no one on your team has porphyrophobia — the fear of the color purple.[4] If that is the case, you can still find a team name that doesn’t directly mention purple, like one inspired by orchids.

Below, we have the list of purple team name ideas, plus tips for creating your own team name.

How to Create a Great Purple Team Name

Use the following tips to create your own purple team name options:

  • Name your team after something purple. A wide variety of flowers, fruits, and other common things are purple. Choose a few of your favorites or gather suggestions from your team to choose the perfect name.
  • Use a specific shade rather than just “purple.” The shades of purple range from the deep reddish-purple of mulberry to the soft purple of lilacs. Have your team choose a specific shade of purple as its designated color (if it doesn’t already have a shade in mind), and brainstorm other words that pair well with that shade.
  • Use a nonsensical pairing! Make your teammates and others laugh with a name that doesn’t make a lot of sense. Pair “purple” with something that obviously isn’t purple — like our list’s “Purple Piglets” and “The Purple Cows” — for a unique and funny team name.
