re: In the end, "Pelicans" really is the best team name for New Orleans'

Interesting though that most of those names often get shortened when the teams are being discussed: Sixers, Cavs, Wolves, Blazers, O's, Tribe, Nats, D'backs, Pats Niners, Bucs.

Which has happened, over time.

The same will happen with Pelicans, somehow.

I think it will end up being Cans or Ps, but I like Pel's.
