I place my bet on New Orleans VooDoo

You rebrand the entire name. If you want the name to work, you do what the Golden State Warriors did.
You rename the entire team. New Orleans should not be put into the name.
-Crescent City Creoles
Logo could be a Fleur-de-lis, or I prefer the River Paddle Boat given the history of New Orleans being a port city and given the heritage of the city.

The New Olreans Hoodu? The Ghouls? The Outlaws? The Sabres(sword) lol The New Olreans Witchdoctors? The New Orleans Knights(Nights) can be tied into the entire French/royalty connection and be pulled off if done right. We need something that atleast sounds tough.

R.I.P. to HunnyB/FlyGirl
Knights would be cool, i thought of it earlier but i didnt think it had anything to do with NOLA
Knights - although not synonymous with NOLA is pretty good.
What about Musketeers? Silver and blue, fleur de lis.
I'd really prefer something to do with our history - Battle of New Orleans, Buccaneers, Pirates, Jolly Rogers. I'm not keen on Voodoo, sounds like a women's team.
Brass - I could live with it.
How about New Orleans Beer. Go Beer! Beer me!! We would be everyones favorite team. Goddell will probably call Stern and tell him that's a bad idea.
New Orleans Jesters = I'm sure if you offered the minor league soccer team some cash they would jump at selling the name
i like Pirates/Corsairs but not Bucs, we would get confused w/ the Bucks plus its one of the Saints rivals
Corsairs could work. I forgot about that one.
Stupid Milwaukee!
do we have sharks in NO?
How about we name ourselves the "New Orleans Eggmcmuffins"? We can be sponsored by Mcdonalds and every time we hit 200 points everyone gets a free eggmcmuffin kinda like the Bulls and their Big Macs... Fair trade no?
I've been hesitant to throw out names because I've always tried to come up with stuff that would be less obvious or common. Think I'll sit down tonight and see what I can come up with; although, one name that has always floated around in my head was "Grenadiers." Of course that one is a bit more attenuated since they were elite french cavalry/infantry units and nothing necessarily to do with New Orleans itself.
Some more (drunken) awful ones:
New Orleans Jazz&Blues
New Orleans Corrupt Cops
Charlotte Hornets of New Orleans
New Orleans Shrimp Shells
New Orleans Swamp Monsters
New Orleans Street Car Stops
Want something that unites the gulf coast? New Orleans humidity. lol
New Orleans Thousand Festivals
New Orleans 503c's
New Orleans Cronies
New Orleans Roof Busters
New Orleans 9 Belows
if we did pirates we could use this for the intro/highlights
I heard New Orleans Blues on another forum.
I like it.
The Knights' logo would work good with that logo that someone had made for the ArcAngels
I threw this out on another thread just to get a reaction really.....New Orleans Masquerade (and we would naturally be referred to as the Masquers)....not macho enough?
"we might make dollars, but we don't necessarily make sense"
"always be sincere....whether you mean it or not"
Someone on Sportscenter mentioned New Orleans Carnival.
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
Crescent city Krewe. I forgot who posted it in another thread but I really like a name starting with crescent city
Would be better as Krewe of Crescent City if we went in that direction -- at least in keeping with how the mardi gras clubs use it.
bored to death and one last effort not directly associated with the city/area....how about Marauders?
