Tips for a great FPL team name

Keep it under 20 characters

FPL truncates long names in league tables and on the app. Shorter names display better and are easier to remember.

Use current players

Player puns hit hardest when they reference this season's stars. Update your name when you transfer in a big player.

Test it out loud

The best puns work when spoken. If you have to explain it, it is probably not the one.

Avoid anything offensive

FPL moderators can (and do) reset offensive team names. Keep it witty, not crass.

Change it mid-season

You can rename your team as often as you like. Some managers change their name every week based on results or new signings.
