View Full Version : Why did you choose your teamname?
Bluesman 29-03-2003, 03:56:PM Yeah...I really love that we can choose our own name of our team...and it is fun to see all teamnames! :)
So...why did you choose your teamname?
As I love bluesmusic (and I mean good old blues here - Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Sonny Boy Williamson, BB King, Elmore James - and not Gary Moore...my teamname was easy too choose...Blues Team :)
What is the story about your teamname?
johan 29-03-2003, 05:04:PM I think my name was simply the very first that popped up in my head. It stuck though. :-)
lordgonzo 29-03-2003, 05:58:PM My teamname, Gonzo.nu, is also the name on my own domain www.gonzo.nu
Had that domain for ages before I knewed what I should do with it.
I like the muppet Gonzo alot, thats why :)
ManagerZone B7 29-03-2003, 06:16:PM I was looking for a team name, and someone proposed AS Amplitudo, it means "Great" in Latin, or great to some extent - it means some other words too, and it sounded good, so i took it :)
Coachtompa 29-03-2003, 07:55:PM IFK Stolpskott :D, fun name
voetballiefhebb 29-03-2003, 08:11:PM Voetballiefhebber. I won't forget it that way. :)
The Mount = my street name and it was the best I could come up with at the time and it stuck. I don't think I'll ever change it now.
Radek I'm interested to know where your old name Lindy Bulldogs came from
Bluecoaster 30-03-2003, 01:14:AM I think Radek said it once, that every team in his province or something has the name lindy bulldogs...or something similar to that, correct me if I'm wrong Radek.
My name came from a local top league (not long though). I'm not original I know.
Ri
ManagerZone B7 30-03-2003, 04:08:AM Well, Lindy is short for Lindenhurst which is the town where i live and bulldogs is the name that all the teams from my town have.
Serano 30-03-2003, 02:52:PM I choose Serano FC because my username was serano.
Not to complicated was it?
maddog1983 30-03-2003, 04:43:PM maddogs 11 was a bit of a long story actually :p
origo 30-03-2003, 05:16:PM Radek, that might have something to do with my team name then? Karlskrona Pitbulls? erh.. maybe not.. :)
seamats 01-04-2003, 01:13:AM FC Vienna Vikings was choosen becuase I play football in an international club in Vienna, Austria called Blue Danube FC.
I live in both Stockholm & Vienna and I choose Vienna as my team..
Very simple....
mummu 01-04-2003, 01:23:AM "Evil Invaders" is a song by Hypocrisy.
stay metal
Stormreaver 01-04-2003, 02:36:AM Östermalm since it's close to where I live (Norra Djurgården), and Gunners since... well, those in here who can't figure that out...
Swish 01-04-2003, 04:03:AM AFC = Association Football Club (for those who didnt know :))
Swish is my nickname, Steve WISHart
Combine the two and voila, I created AFC Swish (H)
/SWISH
Well, I was just sick of having a normal name on my team. Dvärgar På Skateboards (or Midgets/Dwarfs on Skateboards in english) isn't normal is it?
Pontefract City 02-04-2003, 12:35:AM I chose Pontefract City because....well....it was the first thing that came into my head....or maybe it's because I ain't imagintive....and maybe because I was too lazy to think of a team-name so I just kept the same one. I love my team-name though!
olabero 02-04-2003, 08:59:AM Hi.
My team is called OlaBero IK (teamID = 3129)
I choose my teamname because my first name is Ola and my surname starts with Ber. I ended the name with an o = OlaBero
"IK" comes from the team I played soccer in, Listerby IK.
IK = IdrottsKlubb (Athletics Club).
OlaBero have I used for a long time when typing my highscores (played Amiga a long time ago)
OlaBero also sounds like Joe Labero. He is a famous Swedish magician. Thats why I also call my team "BollTrollarna" (the BallWizards).
/OlaBero
Knight Saber 02-04-2003, 10:59:AM Arsenal FC!
The Dude, I played you last week, 1-1 draw i think.
tompa100 02-04-2003, 02:33:PM i chosse my team name because i played in the team in real life.And they closed it down in 1999 so wanted to have the name as a memory of the team.
the team name is :Västerhaninge
(H)
MKillah 02-04-2003, 04:57:PM I support Wisla Krakow so it ws my first teamname but since i've noticed there are too many Wislas in the game i've changed it to White StarZ - White Star is a Wisla's nickname like MUs Red Devils and Z at the end means plural since there are many white stars in my team :P End of Story :D
BTW Hey to every1 :O did i see a MICHAEL???? yeah i did :jambo:
aldebaran 03-04-2003, 05:11:AM Wolves

onlinetanvir 03-04-2003, 11:17:AM in my school, every class had their own soccer teams. i created a soccer team with my friend when i was in 6th grade. the team name was Torpedo Club. i played in that club until i was in 8th grade and then transfered to a different school. I still remember my little Torpedo Club. thats why i named my team Torpedo FC.
chris boston 03-04-2003, 11:43:PM My team name is Chelmsford City in Italian. I lived in Chelmsford when I started playing MZ, and it was either that or Gunners AFC, but somehow I thought there would be more Arsenal fans than one of the local sides so I went for Chelmsford.

Firestreak 09-04-2003, 05:57:PM I haven't bothered to change my name yet as at a cost of £15,000 I have better things to spend my money on. But I'm sure I will when I can afford it.
