2023 Fantasy Football Names

Funny Fantasy Football Names

After you have your Fantasy Football Draft, you need to name your team, but coming up with a name is harder than you think. You want a team name that makes the other managers in your league laugh but still respect you throughout the NFL season. You want to be funny yet feared. You don’t want to set yourself up for any potential trash talk. That is why I have compiled a list of 50 funny fantasy football names for 2023 that will make things easy for you.

But First, Why Is It Important to Name Your Fantasy Team?

Some fantasy owners believe naming your fantasy team is much like naming a boat. There are some superstitions involved. For example, some believe that whatever name you decide on, you must stick with it for as long as you own that team. Changing your team name mid-season can be viewed as back luck. I, for one tend to agree with this. However, I will change my team name to “The Walking Dead” or “Meat Wagon” at the end of the season if my fantasy team is injured and has no chance of making it to the postseason. But for the most part, I try never to rename my fantasy team mid-season.

Tips for Great Fantasy Team Names

The best funny fantasy football team names are usually inside jokes with your buddies or league owners. However, off-the-wall wacky names are good too. If your league is an office pool, it would be smart not to pick names that are too vulgar or offensive. The league owners may not mind, but you want to be able to use your name in the break room out loud. A new trend in Fantasy Football leagues is having a season theme like Game of Thrones, Star Wars, or classic old-school TV shows like Seinfeld or even WWE Wrestling. You can name your division’s similar names or jokes that fit the mold.

Some fantasy managers also go all out and trash talk in character mannerisms when making jokes like Yoda, or use cliche sayings like Macho Man. It can be fun, it can also get old fast, so make sure you stay sharp with your trash talk.

FYI: All the links above are to theme-based team name articles, if you’re thinking of a play-on-words character team name, we should have some good suggestions for you.

Fantasy Team Name Tips & Advice

No matter what league format, try not to use an offensive team name. This especially goes for fantasy football leagues involving co-workers. Remember, fantasy football is supposed to be fun, so don’t take it too seriously and try not to upset anyone with a team name that would result in a personal attack.

Picking a name for your fantasy football squad is half the pleasure and half the challenge. Some individuals are content with a conventional name, while others like the challenge of coming up with a unique and memorable name. Here are a few ideas to get your creative juices flowing if you’re having trouble naming your fantasy football team:

  • One typical strategy for creating a team name in fantasy football is to utilize puns or wordplay involving football, your favorite players, or allusions to popular culture. Names like “Kamara Sutra” and “Gronk if You’re Horny” are puns on the names of New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara and retired tight end Rob Gronkowski, respectively.
  • Consider about the team’s character; the name should convey the group’s ethos. The Longshots or Rookie Errors might be appropriate team names for a collection of rookies or underdogs. You may call yourself “The Champions” or “Dominators” if you believe in your abilities.
  • Think about the movies you enjoy the most: Names of fantasy football teams can be inspired by several well-known TV episodes and movies. Take “Winter is Coming” from “Game of Thrones” or “The Force is Strong” from “Star Wars” as examples.
  • If you’re a huge fan of a certain NFL club, you may draw inspiration for your fantasy football team name from that team’s name or colors. You might call your group the “Black and Gold Rush” if you’re a big Pittsburgh Steelers fan.
  • If you’re in the mood for a throwback, name your squad after a legendary football player or a classic football reference. Referencing former Chicago Bears defensive end William Perry with “The Fridge” or former Buffalo Bills and San Francisco 49ers running back O.J. Simpson with “The Juice is Loose” are just two examples.
  • Provide some levity: A humorous twist on your fantasy football team’s moniker might help it stand out. As a play on Donald Trump’s campaign slogan, “Make America Gronk Again,” or as a tribute to New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, “Breesus, King of the Drews,” are two examples.
  • The use of acronyms is a fun and easy technique to come up with a distinctive team name. You may use “TD’s R Us” to boast about your team’s goal-scoring prowess, or “FFL Frenzy” to indicate how much you love fantasy football.

The best fantasy football team names come from owners who allow their imaginations run free while still being innovative. Choose a name for your squad that is fun and meaningful to you and your teammates, whether using puns, pop culture allusions, or vintage football references.

Wanna Join More Fantasy Leagues?

Finding a fantasy football league isn’t that hard these days, You can use Twitter and meet people with established leagues with open spots or just looking for new leagues that are about to start up. There is also a great Fantasy Football community on Reddit, with thousands of NFL Fantasy fans talking about players, league formats, rules, and more. You should be able to find a league looking for people to join there.

However, sometimes it takes some digging as that forum tends to be more about Fantasy Advice. Another option is to look on Facebook. This is my least favorite social platform, but you can still find active Fantasy Football Facebook Groups there. You could also find friends or co-workers that would join a league with you. Just be active and post something.
