People blasted me for pointing out that New Orleans Pelicans was very wordy with its 6 syllables, but this is why I made that point. The name is clumsy off the tongue, so people are going to shorten it. There will thus be some lame, contrived "nickname" created before the branding is even complete.
pelicans is fine, no different than warriors. It just needs time to settle in people's minds. We haven't even got to preseason yet.

And they're already debating whether to call us the Pels or Pellies.

Exactly, no one is shortening their name, but people seem so hell bent on pushing that crap on us.
