Rougarou has been surprisingly well received here and on HR.

yes but drivemans source also says Pelicans is a done deal and won't be the logo floating around

Rougarou ... Say it out loud a few times. You can't do it without laughing. But it wold be great. Much better than Pelicans.
Can you imagine ESPN and sports announcers all around the USA saying Rougarou.

I hope it's just joking, because I'd hate for the organization to perceive it as literal and choose it over Pelicans. I'm not even a Pelicans fan but that is 1000x better than Rougarou.

Benson bought the team on April 13.
Looks like on that same day somebody filed to trademark New Orleans Brass LINK
Somebody with more legal expertise might know what "Published for Opposition - January 22, 2013" means.
Did a quick google search of the guy who filed and it looks like some shady New Orleans attorney who did prison time a few years ago.

Most likely that is someone trademarking the logo and colors so Benson can't use it without his/her consent.

It is not. Rougarou is awesome.

People are saying they "like" it because its bizarre and they can be all "haha look at us and this bizarre name! So weird it is awesome".
No one actually likes it. It won't be the name. Although I can believe that Jester actually likes it.

Rougarou > Pelicans.

I see images of Rougarou and can't help but think of Baphomet without wings for some reason.

Yeah, it's pretty equivalent to the
Seattle Sasquatch
I would think it were a joke if Seattle went with that name when they get a team again. People would view Rougarou similarly...if they even knew WTF a Rougarou was.

No one outside of Louisiana will know wtf that is. shite, I've lived in Metairie my whole life and didn't know wtf it was before reading the article. I've seen the thing at the zoo plenty of times, but never knew that's what it was called

I don't really care for the Pelicans, but the rest of the names on that list sound like a 4th grader picked them...
Just fricking buy Voodoo or go with Brass and be done with it
