Agree it is for the absurd - the trouble is none of those names are clever or interesting.

Crawfish is the only decent name. But just to make fun of them I am pulling for Baby Cakes.

all horrible



just OMG bad. Night Owls I guess if I have to change and pick but I'd maybe change the Owls part to something more local...hawks are everywhere, pigions, some kinda duck? Night Mallards, hell I don't know but with these selections they might as well be called the smells like arse cause those 7 all do

IDK - Zephyrs? I guess most young people don't know where this came from.


I might have to go with - New Orleans Night Owls out of those terrible choices.

Anyone have an update on this?

It seems the zephyrs organization has quietly got away from these horrible names.

I think they are going to announce the winning name in the fall, around October

A Zephyr is a soft, gentle breeze or a lightweight gingham cloth.

Both of which can be found in New Orleans.

I'm for not changing.
