Someone got visited by the good idea fairy and now I have a hilarious opportunity here. Its a mixed gender, 3-6 year old team, I get two words, 3 colors, and a logo. What's the funniest thing I could do for my kiddo? We vote on the name in a couple days but I want to come loaded with 3 or 4 options.
Edit: sad news y'all, the name was picked without consulting the other coaches. We're gonna be Sea Serpents this year. Thanks to everyone for replying, it was a fun exercise nonetheless.

I was thinking about being The Peanuts so we could chant GO NUTS!

Is it not mongeese lol?

Every time a team name is put up for discussion around me I suggest the fighting mongoose's. Not once has anyone understood that reference.

The Heelers, use an outline of Bluey's head for the logo.
The next Gen, with a trek logo?
On that note, the commanders, with red shirts and a trek logo?
I'm a fan of Book wyrms, dragon Logo, but that's not so kid friendly. Maybe some other dragon related joke?
The hot wheels? With a fire truck logo?
That's all I got, good luck, and I hope you share the end choice later.

You could play it straight and do something kids love, like "Dinosaurs".
My other suggestions are "Robots" or "Draculas".

My kids would think Butt Butt is hilarious. Colors would be blue and orange (Bluey and Bingo). Logo could be the Heeler house.

The Princess Pirates - logo includes eyepatch, fake looking stubble, tiahra over a pirate hat over perm curls.
The Home Runs - logo is a house with a face and limbs holding its butt like it's running to the bathroom.
The Swing Batter-Batters - logo is a swing in motion ridden by a bat (mammal or baseball).
Mmmm Cake - logo is cake. Kids love cake.
The Stinky Parents - logo is parents, characteur common outfits/styles for your area. Maybe clown makeup. Definitely stink lines.

These are all stupid but I think they’d be funny little league teams
Hegar@fedia.io · 4 pts · 186d
I would hope the logo is a whale relaxing on a towel under an umbrella.

Anything notable about your area? Nearest MLB team? What letter does your town name start with? Alliteration always helps. You don't have to dox yourself, but they might give you ideas.
Sandlot Sluggers
Base-Stealing Bandits (I cheated, Base Bandits might still get the point across)
Knuckle Balls
Baby Ruths
Fruit Bats
Vampire Bats
Banana Slugs
Golden Slugs (Golden Gloves)
Chili dogs
Crackerjacks
Home team
Good guys
The Batmans
Dandelion Pickers
Grimy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 184d
Baby Ruths is seriously underrated. Chili dogs is good too.

There are a whole bunch of minor league team names that are fun. There are teams called the Jumbo Shrimp, the Iron Pigs, the Flying Squirrels, the River Bandits, and all of them have fun logos already available on baseball hats.
There is of course the question of copyrights, but there are three good reasons why you probably don't need to worry about getting sued. First, it would be unbelievably bad press for any major or minor league or team to sue a bunch of tiny fans. Second, you'll probably be buying a bunch of merchandise like hats and banners with their logos on it (assuming you aren't printing your own using their logos). Third, they would probably get laughed out of court at the notion that a multi-million dollar franchise needs to differentiate itself from the sandlot kids in diapers. You're not profiting from the name or logo (right?), and they have better things to do with their time than volunteer to be the villain in the court of public opinion.
Edit to add some more: Trash Pandas, Rumble Ponies, Sod Poodles, Yard Goats, Blue Wahoos, AquaSox, RubberDucks, PaddleHeads, Hot Rods, Cannon Ballers, and the Baby Cakes.

Yeah we were the River Dogs last season, sadly missed being the Trash Pandas. I think minor league is off limits for copyright reasons.

That's a bummer. How about the Fightin' Gaelea Baens? It's a beetle, and it's pronounced "Jelly Bean."
happysplinter@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 184d
My favorite minor league team name is the Lansing Lug nuts. My friend's dad's is the new Orleans Buzz.

Two words, they said
Kolanaki@pawb.social · 0 pts · 186d
I have plenty of ideas, but none of them would be appropriate for a team of 5 year olds... 👀
