Sure - I definitely don't hate the idea of "Racing Carolina FC",has legith history and buys into a history of area with a homage to a euro/world name convention. Unique for MLS for sure. Just not sure avg Joe Carolina is neccessarily is in the same soccer culture level with average Joe Indiana. I could be wrong. I'm obviously throwing my hat towards the Royalty angle. Maybe that's the British in me ? Either way, happy to finally have a team in MLS. 5 days and I'm getting very impatient now 'urry up!!
Crown, Monarchs and Fortune Removed from Trademark Requests Leaving Charlotte Town FC, Charlotte FC, Charlotte Athletic FC as the three options. (according to leaks on reddit)
I'm cool with all three names but since there isn't a 'Town' in MLS I think Charlotte Town would be good. Athletic or just 'FC' are fine as well.
Mind you, if there is already a North Carolina FC . The likelihood of Carolina FC would be remote. Points to Charlotte Town or Charlotte A/FC
Over the past several months with the lockdown, my family has been throwing out names we've heard or like for Charlotte's MLS team. I finally wrote the ones I can remember down. Many of these are (obviously) tongue-in-cheek, and many you'll only understand if you live or have lived in Charlotte. In no particular order, here they are: Charlotte Humidity Charlotte Teeters Charlotte Wasps Charlotte 1875 Charlotte Independence Charlotte Racing Club Racing Club de Charlotte Charlotte Pinstripes Charlotte Cha-Ching Charlotte Wedge Charlotte Kickballers Charlotte Arbitrage Charlotte Gridlock Charlotte NC SC Queen City Football Club Charlotte Oaks Charlotte Sweet T's

Not a bad effort. I like the crown on top of the crest idea regardless if they use the Royal theme or not. Charlotte Town seems very forced to me and reeks of a euro team wannabe. Makes more sense to call it Charlotte CIty FC in my eyes
Damn... Charlotte Crown or Carolina Crown FC I thought would have been one of the best names in the league. I’d hope for Charlotte Athletic FC if it’s between those three. I’d live with Charlotte Town FC, and I’d hate Charlotte FC.
When will the name, colors, and logo for Charlotte's Major League Soccer expansion team be announced? "Hopefully next month," according to a figure "with direct knowledge of the decision". https://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/article243760447.html
That’s a bad move, in my opinion. It’s just the damn team name. Announce it already. Keeping people in suspense is not going to build the brand anymore than going ahead and announcing it.
After all that! Maybe the showed what they had to a focus group who then told them to go away and start again!
