  • This was going on in a fan-fic board, so let's make a game of hit here. Get a silly, obnoxious, punny, suggestive or creative name for a Superhero Group in the Whateley Universe.

    Here's a summary of what was already discussed there:

    Right now I have a temporary name of Miami Lightning, but I don't like it.


    The Crusaders name seems to be "franchised" out.
    And if the Crusaders isn't quite your cup of tea, on the same general theme they could be the "Inquisitors" .
    And they would have the advantage that no one would expect them to show up!


    Heh, that's almost as bad as the "Conquistadors" would be...


    If you had an all female team with water themed powers you could go with "The Miami Mermaids". "The Miami Dades" is a trifle tongue in cheek, and you might not want to go with including Miami at all. Perhaps something like "The Scorpions" to reference the cryptid of Miami Beach, or maybe for a laid back group, "The Beach Bums".


    Miami Vanguard
    Also two of the Members must be named Sonny and Rico And the teams gadgeteer must produce awesome souped up cars for transportation. :P


    I like the beach bums, and the scorpions is cool, I didn't know Miami had a cryptid.
    But it's Crusaders. The beach bums can be another Florida team.


    best team name. Miami mice.


    The Retreads. A name used to refer to the retired supers in the area, not a name they choose themselves.


    The Miami Snowbirds. A part-time super team of elderly superheroes who spend the winter months in Florida!


    the Miami Gophers. Or is it Miami Diehards?


    OK, I'm in a punny mood, so two more (quite unlikely) suggestions:
    Miami Dudes?
    Miami Vises?


    Miami Chasers
    Miami Laserjets

    The Miami Fixed??? :ohmy:
    I bet they'll really have a difficult time getting men to join :lol:


    They still have more luck getting male team members than the New Orleans Castrators.


    Or American Headhunters


    But way LESS success in acquiring male members than the Daytona Womanhunters...


    And of course, the Daytona team is peanuts when compared to the Nashville Nympos!


    The Newfoundland Nudists gets quite a few members, but most of them are rather sad over the hill people trying to feel young.


    On the other hand, the Albuquerque Amazons can't seem to keep men around. They all end up running, screaming, their bodies badly bruised ...
    Surprisingly even as they ran screaming they had very big grins on their faces and were smoking.


    But what about those Talladaga Nightingals?


    They started their own team ( with 2 mill pop in the GVRD they can have 2 teams ;) ) The Vancouver Gigolos, and the weaklings that have formed a team in Victoria can't understand why they can't get stronger members for the Victoria Vegans. (seems to me more powerful members would want that 5 pound slab of flesh at every meal. )

  • Las Vegas Insomniacs. They're grumpy, constantly complaining or whining, and their headquarters is basically a coffee bar, but they get a lot of work done.

  • United Axegrinders. A support group for both hero's and villains who went through a bitter divorce seeking vengeance. Group support is anonymous, held in secret through the use of devisor monitors cloaking those in secrecy.

    Another would be the United Brony Front or UBF for short. Don't ask who's under the suit. Its a tight knit group only in it for the friendship and their not telling who.

  • oops, Elrod forgot to include the group that can't get male members, causing the second one to form. The Vancouver Vixens.

    the Penticton Menarch Supers aka PMS

  • For one week of the month, the city is completely crime free. In fact everything grinds to a halt, due to fear, except the ice cream trucks and shops, along with the pharmacies, of course.

    There had been speculation about the Kansas City Cow Pokes but nobody wanted to touch that one. Also known as the K.C. C. P.

    Better that they were so before they had a chance to maul the Cadbury Bunnies. Their kinda sensitive about people nibbling their ears.

    Oh and don't touch the M&M bunch. Especially the green one.

  • Or the Alaskan Bear Huggers. No one is quite sure why they hug bears, and everyone is too afraid to ask.

  • Chou thinks that all she needs to do is to defeat the the Demon Lord of the Hell of Fiery Immersion and rescue her father, but that is only the warmup. Soon she must face her true nemeses: The Knoxvillains.

    Either one of which could be funded by the true scions of evil..

  • For an Islamic team, 99 would be a cool one, particularly if the members all chose their heroic names based on the attributes. Admittedly, the concept has been done before in superhero fiction.

  • A team of probability warpers calling themselves National Lampoons would get all of the laughs. But would then have to deal with everything going wrong, including copyright violations.:silly:
