A Few Tips For Picking Your FPL Team Name
The best team names usually do one of three things well, they make a genuine pun work without trying too hard, they reference something specific to that season so it feels fresh rather than recycled, or they’re self-deprecating enough to be funny even when your team’s having a bad week. Whatever you land on, it’s worth remembering you’re stuck with it for the season, or at least until you’re brave enough to change it mid-year and admit defeat to your mini-league.
If you want a name that ages well, leaning into player-based puns from this season’s biggest transfers is usually a safer bet than something built entirely around form, since form changes but a good pun sticks.
