    Dukes is my name of choice. I know not everyone is sold on it, but I think they are just crazy people

    With a logo of a Bishops hat like below, but with a fleur de lis instead of the cross. Maybe the hat sitting on a basketball rather than a head. Just a thought. I'm sure you can come up with some more clever ideas. I'd like to see them

    Is this what you had in mind?

    Besides the Pelicans, I have my Krewe concept that I re-worked and did another logo for. Originally, the Krewe and Brass were the same uni design with just the names being interchangeable depending on what was favored. But now I'm planning on doing a set strictly for the Brass to provide another option.

    While I was planning on doing one for the Corsairs, I mentioned before that I scrapped the idea because of using Jean Laffite's likeness and his association with slave trading. However, I went to B&N today and purchased a book called 'Pirates: Scourge of the Seas' by John Reeve Carpenter. It's a really nice book for information and reference material for my designs.

    After reading a bit of it today, I see why those of you who suggested the Navigators as a name, liked it so much. Like the book states, they were basically known as "the artist" of a ship. They set the ship's course and plotting using such instruments as: maps, mathematics, a compass, telescope and astrolabe.

    I found the info intriguing and worthy of a concept so I plan to sketch out some ideas for that one. Another thing that I like is that it rolls off of the tongue (a necessity to most) the same as Knights would but IMO has more relevance since we are a port city.

    (Arc)Angels is another concept that I have but am in the process of changing a few things but it will be included. I understand the connection to our city and the Dukes name, although I am not that big of a fan of it, I am going to present one for it, possibly using the same design that I have already posted. I like it's simplicity and I don't see much more that I can do to it without making it cluttered.

    I would like to do one for the Royals, most likely will, but I have to sketch something that I like. My possibly final two concepts will be the Voodoo and Hurricanes. I re-designed the current AFL logo and it is vicious! If the skull they have now had an evil twin brother, it would look like my design, I love it! I've done a uni treatment for the Hurricanes, still have to do the logo, my only iffy part is that I designed it to be red, black and gold. Might have to change the colors though!

    So for a re-cap: Pelicans, Krewe, Navigators, (Arc)Angels, Dukes, Royals, Voodoo, Hurricanes

    I like the Navigators idea with the Corsairs design. It would be weird though calling them the Navs since there is already the Mavs. But no matter.

    Also bigdub, the Dukes design was perfect and you could also use it on the Knights uniforms you made if you wanted to change it up.

    how about the New Orleans Brows?

    i think one of its members would really appreciate that.

    How about the New Orleans Islanders? In college I took a planning class that talked about New Orleans as an island in several ways. Culturally, it's sort of a Caribbean influenced island in the Southern U.S., and we're physcially bordered by water on all sides (the river, lakes, canals, swamps). there were a couple of other "island" aspects too (politics,etc.), but I'm having trouble remembering them all.

    I wouldnt mind the Navigators. I think if people shorten it, it would be the Navi's. New Orleans Navis

    on a quick glance, I don't want to be known as the Navis or Nazis. Just me.

    Zombies, never thought of it. Not bad. I think Voodoo is perfect. Give the Arena team a few bucks and take the name.

    Dont like "Bounce" at all.

    I have grown on Voodoo, I dont know if its because of WhoDatChristian's extreme lobbying against it, but im starting to like it.

    It's a good observation that a nickname like this lends itself to abbreviation. It's the same rule of thumb when naming children or pets- for this reason I doubt the new name will carry more than two syllables.

    Don't worry. I was originally on board with VooDoo but started leaning towards Knights recently......until WhoDatChristian got on his soapbox. Now VooDoo's back in the lead. LOL
