Unofficial Naming Thread for the new football game

Rosco Peabody · 07-22-2017, 06:29 PM

What are some good names for the new, unnamed game?

It has to have a good acronym to it, so it can't be something like
"Super Ultimate Catch & Kick", not that you'd ever name it that, but you see that the acronym wouldn't work

Rosco Peabody · 07-22-2017, 06:30 PM

Maybe something with "Gridiron" in the title?

Rosco Peabody · 07-22-2017, 06:31 PM

Or somehow rope in "Field General"

Out of the Gridiron Football. OOGF.

Gee...I thought this would be easy but I'm really having a difficult time coming up with a decent name. I'll keep trying.

Doesn't sound quite right. Perhaps "Off the Gridiron" instead?

I would like to submit for review "Moving the Chains" Football.

If the game delivers as well as OOTP always has with both gameplay and yearly improvements, then it will be indeed "moving the chains" for all football sims.

If we're going for something with "trenches" in the title, then "Trench Warfare" might work.

If it was a college game and we were being mindful of the resulting acronym, "Big Man On Campus Football" gives you the built-in "BMOC" thing to work with.

Other ideas: "The Winning Program" (referring to a football program, which colleges often do, not just a computer program), "Giants of the Gridiron," "Total Playbook Football," something like that.

Too bad "League of Legends" is already taken (as a fantasy genre title, at that), as that would be a good name for a pro game. Of course, your acronym would be "LOL Football" so maybe it's for the best.
