So, at the cusp of a new dawn of Roller Derby for Nottingham, we have the joyous task of both naming the team and naming ourselves. I have been rattling around some potential names for the Nottingham Roller Girls and i would love some feedback – and if you have thought of any others which you think would be great, let me know!
(By the way, sometimes i write just like i think, so please try and ingnore the ramblings if you can
)
- Nottingham Roller Girls
- Notts Moxie Molls (Gangster, get it?)
- Notts Hoodlum Hotties (Like Robin Hood.)
- Notts you out (play on words, get it?….Knock you out?……No? …..ok)
- Notts Night Rollers (like Knight Rider? No?)
- Notts Femme Fatales
- Nottingham Steel Wheels (double meaning – steel wheels of roller skates and steal your wheels -as in off your car- Nottingham is famous for:)
- Notts Lacing Ladies (yeah, not great, but something to do with nottingham Lace, alliteration? No? ok.)
Additional-
Other names i am pondering
derby dynamos? (play on the NRG)
Rollerderby Rockets
Notts Derby Ducks (eh up me duck)
Derby devils
Nottingham Nitros
Mayhem Maids
Maids in the hood
Notts sharpshooters
the curs of costner means a robinhood theme is compulsory. as are the green hats lol.
I kinda like Notts You Out, but it sounds more like a player name than a team name.
And as much as there is the robin hood connection its a cliche thats been done to death I do think Hoodlum Hotties is kinda good.
Something I did just spot though – Nottingham Roller Girls – N.R.G. – ‘Energy’
There could be a thing with that
– Atomic Notts Roller Girls? Atomic NRG? (haveto admit Atomic Notts for short has a ring to it)
– Nuclear NRG?
– Boundless NRG?
Hey interesting, hadn’t spotted the NRG, and yes Atomic Notts does kind of trip of the tongue.
I am not sure about the whole robin hood connection – i know it is kind of the main thing about Nottingham, but i just think a name based on in needs to be good so it doesn’t sound too twatty, but yes Hoodlum Hotties i am quite keen on
but then Mayhem Maidens isn’t bad, or Iron Maidens……..?
and i do agree with ‘Notts you out’ sounding a bit too team namey.
hmmmmm – will have a ponder and see if i can come up with anymore….
I love the NRG connection… Unlimited Nottingham Roller Girls?
