How to Create Your Own Witty Team Names

Try the following tips to create your own witty team names:

Turn to the masters. You can get inspiration for witty team names from people known for their skilled wordplay, such as writer/filmmaker Nora Ephron, rapper/songwriter Jay-Z, or writer Dorothy Parker. Look up quotes and quips from these writers to help generate ideas of your own.
Use fun facts about your team. The secret to a witty team name is quick humor and uniqueness. Create a witty team name by choosing a descriptive word or phrase about your team or one that can be tweaked to form a quick-witted name.
Think of witty words or phrases you already know or use. A witty team name may be right in front of you once you consider some of the humor you use on a day-to-day basis.
Vote on your favorite. If your team is on the creative side, have each member submit a witty team name and put the winner to a team vote. If you have several great options, try combining them in a unique or unusual way. Get creative!
