82.58% including myself say it should be something more "New Orleans"

It depends. I don't like many of the other options but there are a few that I like more than Hornets so far

All of the choices seem to have too little support, but Voodoo has never really been discussed because it wasn't available. If Benson is willing to buy Voodoo I could see people getting behind that.

1. Jazz - not gonna happen
2. Brass - would have to obtain the naming rights first.
3. Hornets - don't care too much for the name, but we're all used to it and I have way too much apparel to call vintage already.

This would be my choice. That team is probably about to fold anyway.

Be careful what you wish for

I prefer to stay the Hornets than be something totally gay like Krewe of New Orleans, New Orleans Soul, New Orleans Gators, or New Orleans Mudbugs.

Voodoo would be the shite. We need to make that happen ASAP. Best option. We could probably offer the AFL team a 4 piece from Stinger Wings and they'd jump at the opportunity.

ya'll are giving people too much credit. yeah, current name isnt the greatest, but new one likely to be 100 times worse.

They will hire some national search firm with stupid arse yankee whores that think Crawfish are cute and unique, and next thing you know they are the New Orleans Crawdaddies

What's so bad about these?

I never understood how people grow to develop a hatred for team names.

If the team is winning and gets a championship or two, yes they will.
