ETA: I goofed here's the full list

My thoughts
First City Football Club (FCFC): Unique but too soccerish
Archers: Nah
Beacons: Not a fan
Belters: Too minor league baseballish
Redtails: Im okay with this one
Razorbacks: Im okay with this one as well but it kind of feels wrong given the whole Arkansas thing. I get that name doesnt just have to be exclusive to Arkansas but they are the only major program with that name.
Defenders: I could see this working but they would have to nail the logo/branding
Football team: Honestly this has grown on me and i think it'd be cool if they just rolled with it.

They should just go by “Washington”

I like Redtails but wonder if their current color scheme would have to change
maroon and Gold is not a great mix with red

These all seem like names for a semi-pro football or hockey team.

Ah shite. I just copy pasted the tweet from the bottom of the article. Figured that was the top list.

Hogs is interesting for an obvious reason, but no to the Razorbacks. Monarchs are too synonymous with the old KC baseball team. And it's the antithesis of what Washington is about.
Most of the other ones are dumb.
