Timeline for WFT new nickname - Erictelevision - 01-27-2021 01:51 PM

Has anyone heard any news about WFT picking new nickname?

RE: Timeline for WFT new nickname - ClairtonPanther - 01-27-2021 03:47 PM

Crazy enough. I hope WFT remains the name. Gives it a European feel and is unique.

2022. The hold up is in licensing and long term branding. It won't be a fan favorite like Redtails or Generals.

Saw that they will have new nickname and logo in time for the 2022 season

They're finalizing the Trademarks now, filings have already been done. Kinda obvious when you think about it.

My Top 3 from this list:

Redhogs
Redwolves
Football Team

Armada and Brigade are very non-NFL-type names.
Commanders, Defenders, and Presidents are generic but I don't hate Commanders (i.e. Commander-in-Chief).
Redhogs just doesn't sound like a good name to me but I'm sure there's a group that feels different.
Redwolves isn't bad.
Washington Football Team is almost comical and sarcastic to use.

My top three:
1) Washington Redwolves
2) Washington Commanders
3) Washington Football Team

RE: Timeline for WFT new nickname - PirateTreasureNC - 08-18-2021 04:51 PM

Honestly, with those choices I'd stay with Football Team... none of them do much for me.

RE: Timeline for WFT new nickname - GoodOwl - 08-18-2021 05:25 PM

I hear "Washington Bullets" is available...would be historical and current at the same time.

Also "Washington Barrycrackers" would be a nod to the district's more recent history and values, bringing all communities together in one multi-purpose moniker.

Washington BOTs (Biden/Bush-Obama-Trump)

Presidents or the military themed ones work for me

RE: Timeline for WFT new nickname - chargeradio - 08-22-2021 09:03 PM

Interesting to see Defenders on the list, given that was the name of the XFL team. That certainly has to be a red herring.

And very confusing when the team is on offense.

Washington Football Team to announce new name on Feb. 2; it won't be an early fan favorite

Washington Weasels

Washington Welfares?
Washington Wuhans?
Washington Waxeens (organic substances recently discovered in the rainforest)?
