Once the players are drafted and lineups are submitted, there’s one crucial step before embarking on another Fantasy Football season. What do you name your team?
The team name is an essential element of Fantasy Football. It can set the tone for a season, and inspire fear and hopelessness in opposing teams. In dark times, a name change can provide a team with a fresh identity, preparing them for the cold winter stretch.
Still looking for a new moniker? As always, Heavy’s got your back. We’ve scoured the Internet for 50 of the best fantasy names for the 2015 season. They’ve been organized by cleanliness, with the work-friendly names at the top.
Enjoy, and good luck this season!
For the Office League
Nothing plummets workplace productivity like the office fantasy league. Feel free to step back from your desk, make your way over to Steve’s desk, and tell him his wide receivers are garbage. But if your boss is one of your league mates, this isn’t the place to name your squad “Show Me Your TD’s”.
All these names are kid-friendly and are still good for laughs:
Latte-vious Murray
RoboCobb
Turn Down for Watt
Rated R for Gore
Kaeptain Crunch
RusselMania
Badonkagronk
Over Dwayne Bowe
Will You Mariota Me?
Golden Tate Warriors
Tannesaurus Rex
Abdullah Oblongata
Luck-ness Monster
Adam Schefter’s Source
Geno Grigio
Kraft Macaroni and Legal Fees
Shelvin’ Benjamin
I’m Thinkin’ RB’s
Honey Funchess of Oats
Pop Culture References
It’s ok if not everyone in the league gets the joke. You’re cool, you watch the cool shows, and your references are always on point. Why should your fantasy team name be any different?
These names are all references to some non-sports media. The less people in your league that get the joke, the better:
Just Gurley Things
Forgetting Brandon Marshall
Witten Mittens!
Gotta Catch Jamal
Jurassic Parkey
Five Nights at Teddy’s
I Can’t Believe it’s Not Cutler
Long as I Got my Suit and T.Y
In a Van Down by the Rivers
Dude You’re Getting an Odell
Saved by Le’Bell
Geno 911
Do the Sankey Leg
Too Many (Brandin) Cooks
The Walking Dez
Stairway to Evans
50 Shades of Clay
Consider Me Knile Davis
Watt me Whip, Watt me JJ
Wakka Flacco Flame
Breezus Walks
Game of Thrones Fans:
Demarious Targareyan

The Manning-Faced God
The God of Fitz and Wine
Borderline Offensive
At its core, Fantasy Football is about being superior to your friends. Trash talk isn’t just allowed; it’s the whole point of playing. So if the objective is to have the best team name, regardless of moral compass, we’ve still got you covered.
It’s not like these are shockingly offensive, but none of these would be suitable for your church league:
Amari/Carr, “F*ck Yeah”
Romophobic
Agholorious Basterds
Yippee Kay Yay Justin Tucker
Fortes and Blounts
I’m Al-fraid I just Blue Myself
