yeah, but there have been lawsuits over this type of stuff. it depends on what type of copyright they have on the name and such.

Getting the Jazz name back would be incredible, but highly unlikely. My next nomination would be the Brass, but I believe its owned by Nagin.

I like Creole, too. I think they'd do well to incorporate all of southeast Louisiana to bring in that fan base that has been deprived. Creole would do that. We could keep creole blue, too. I think you could even keep the Fleur de Bee as a homage to the franchise's roots.
I could appreciate a Baratarian reference, as well.

This and Crescents are my two suggestions.

I'm all for changing the name to an unpronounceable symbol. It would at least get us some publicity.

My top three would be
Krewe
Pistols
Brass

New Orleans Popeyes Chicken and Biscuits
New Orleans Original Daquiris
New Orleans Hamburger and Seafood (Co.)
We could just name ourselves the Laykers, Selltics ,or Nicks and hope some of their bandwagon fans get confused and buy tickets.

I'd be in favor of any of the following..
Brass,
Hurricanes
Some form of pirate
then maybe blues

All the best names are taken.
Jazz
Voodoo
I really don't like the hornets, but the other options seem cheesy. The team has done a good job with the colors and fluer de bee logo to give it that local flavor.
