This.

My concern is that they need to stay away from some of the God awful possibilities I've seen here and heard on the radio.

This means next to no merchandise sales as well.


Meh, I doubt Pittsburgh has much of a problem selling Penguins, Steelers, and Pirates gear. They all have the same color scheme.

Dude, do you have an alarm that goes off every time someone posts about changing the Hornets name? Just to let you in on a little secret...the nickname "Hornets" is pretty damn bad already. Yea, it could get worse, but it could also get a lot better.

I like Voodoo best. Pelicans is not bad. Krewe is kind of meh.

Brass is ok.

Breakers is growing on me. I like the colors, design by BigDub.

Jazz obviously the best. Any of those are doable though. Pelicans is more of a baseball name but I like it regardless. It's unique, local and pretty cool.

Buccaneers is too similar to Bucks. Privateers would work. Not sure if there would be an issue with UNO though.

The only one that fits his ideal besides "Jazz" is "Rhythm."

I'm down for a re-brand, but not if it makes us sound like a WNBA or Arena Football team. The best option I've heard so far as far as local ties and not sounding to ridiculous is the Brass. I'd rather keep the Hornets over anything else I've heard besides that.

How about just take the "ets" off and go by "the Horns"

And keep the NOLA and trumpet image?
