When I was younger, didn't know much about baseball other than that it existed, and didn't particularly care, i considered the Cardinals to have the worst name of everything in the world. Why would you name a sports team after the final boss menace of ten-year-old choir boys the world over??
There are probably several different ways you can define "worst nickname".
The dumbest?
The wrongest?
The most meaningless?
Anyway, from the selection above it's probably either Phillies (at least Angels has a meaning beyond "from City X"; also Mets bias), Jazz/Lakers for reasons already stated here, and Predators, for how sexually charged that word has become in the last ten years or so.
