Fictional League Team Names
I want to start a solo league that has fictional teams and players.
Whenever I try to do this though, I can never think of enough team names and cities to use. Anyone who would like to help out, could you give me ideas for teams? I'm looking at a 24 team league, with AAA, AA, A, and SA. I also want to add a Japanese league with AAA, A, and R. Both will have college and high school feeders. There will be some other independent international leagues, but I'll have to game randomize those cities and names. So, just through some ideas out there please. |

I'm taking it your stateside so why not places within your state making it a state league, the minors and such you could also have state leagues but use states you've visited or have family in or from. Japanese league, why not use the birthplaces of Japanese major league players, using Ichiro as an example you could have the Kasugai Hitters.

Go to the Mods forum and look at the endless supply of Logo's and uniforms. All have names. You could create a league with 100's of teams and never run out of names.
To start listing them here would be futile as there's just too many. |

Major League Cities
I used the Mods forum and came up with this list of teams for the ML Level.
They all need some good nicknames though? Northern Division: Boise City Chicago Wichita Ann Arbor St. Paul Green Bay Eastern Division Jersey City New York Charlotte Philadelphia Bristol Chesapeake Southern Division Tuscaloosa Little Rock Orlando El Paso Athens Baton Rouge Western Division Lincoln Anaheim Mesa Santa Fe Honolulu Carson City I'm all ears for nickname idea! |

Northern Division
Boise City Fruit Pickers Chicago Unions Wichita Aviators Ann Arbor Collegians St. Paul Saints Green Bay Blue Sox Eastern Division Jersey City Skeeters New York Mutuals Charlotte 99ers Philadelphia Centennials Bristol Bell Makers Chesapeake Colonials Southern Division Tuscaloosa Capitals Little Rock Travelers Orlando Bulldogs El Paso Sun Kings Athens Millers Baton Rouge Cajuns Western Division Lincoln Railsplitters Anaheim Aces Mesa Farmers Santa Fe Trailriders Honolulu Islanders Carson City Mountainmen Unsure what kind of names you were after, most are real nicknames of teams that used to play there with some nicknames down to historical relevance example being Charlotte 99ers, in 1799 a large gold nugget was found which led to the first gold rush in the USA in around 1802. |
