Six-A-Side Team Name Generator

How to Create a Good Six-a-Side Team Name

There are three basic directions you can go with six-a-side team names: sport-inspired, six-inspired, or just generally cool.

Six-a-side commonly refers to six-a-side football matches, so you can pull a lot of different names from the sport of football/soccer.

You might consider incorporating favorite players or football terminology and rules into your name.

Since your group will include six people, you can also take inspiration from the number six.

See examples of this in our list of six-person group names. Inspirations range from movies, television, and other elements of pop culture to simple math!

Sport- and number-inspired games are often the best choices since they’re more specific to the activity you’re doing, but you can also just use a team name you think is cool!

Choose an animal or mythical creature as a mascot, use a phrase that sounds tough, or whatever you please.

Sports are all about physical skills, but feel free to use your creativity!
