FC Wellington?

What do you reckon?
the only two sensible names mentioned have been FC Wellington and Wellington Athletic.

Personally I'd go with Wellington Athletic with there jersey yellow and black stripes

They both sound ok to me. None of these silly nicknames.......

I heard it was going to be wellington wasps. But Wellington Athletic does sound pretty good. But aslong as the name isnt so embarrisingly bad that no self respecting new zealander would want to support them I could care less.

Not FC as it is Sydney's.

Yeh i don't mind FC, who cares if sydney has it, so do thousands of other clubs. Yellow and Black would be good, would really fit in with the seats of Stadium and i guess if they don't want to be like the other NZ franchises they have to get away from black and white/grey

Wellington Wasps? That is stupid

Makes sense with the yellow and black though doesn't it. Sounds like a under 12's sides name though.

The name should be
Wellington Te Upoko-o-te-Ika-a-Māui FC

you know it makes sence

Do not go for those American style names for sporting teams - they are really pathetic.

Your right It should be Maori

lol

Aotearoa Athletic
Aotearoa AC
AC Aotearoa
Aotearoa FC
FC Aotearoa
Wellington Aotearoa

If you must have Wasps as part of the identity package, let it be a nickname that accompanies one of the above franchise names. In other words, the club name is officially Aotearoa Athletic and the club's mascot/nickname is Wasps.

Wellington Phoenix FC, huh?

Not bad... not bad at all. Given the demise of the Knights, followed by the "rebirth" of A-League soccer in New Zealand via Mr. Serepisos' efforts, the symbolism inherent in the Phoenix name is evident. It lends itself to dynamic imagery, given the immortal bird's mythological roots. Yellow and Black are solid choices as primary colors, though I might suggest adding just a bit of Red and Orange to the mix as accent colors, in order to play up the fiery angle of the phoenix legend.
