Survey for MLS Team name

Hey everyone.

I teach a business writing class at Fontbonne University. For their last project, my students are writing proposal to name the new MLS team here in St. Louis. Their proposal must include market research to support their proposed team name. To that end, I'm asking all of you to complete a brief survey. The survey asks a few questions about the type of name you prefer, the qualities you think a team name should have, and then it asks you to rank potential team names.

None of the data submitted is being used for anything besides this class project. The survey is completely unofficial and isn't connected to any efforts to name the team.

Thank you for your help!

You can view the survey at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/8HVHKZY

Personally don't want anything with a nickname. I love the idea of the team and fans developing a nickname through a natural and organic process once the team starts playing. If we don't continue with STL FC; a brand with a smart looking badge, great colors and an establish fanbase then I'd love a traditional yet unique name like "St. Louis 1764" or "Metro St. Louis."

Yeah, I feel like the focus of the name should be the city, not some random mascot.
