Good names for hockey teams do more than sound tough. They give a team something to shout in the locker room and something fans remember.
Hockey covers more than one sport too. Ice hockey and field hockey use the game differently, so not every name fits both.
This list has names for hockey teams in every style — funny, bold, clever, plus lists built just for field hockey and women’s teams.
Pick the style that fits your team and get started.

Ice Hockey or Field Hockey? It Changes the Name.
Most hockey team name lists are built for ice hockey without saying so. They’re full of rink, puck, and ice words — great if that’s your sport, but a strange fit if your team plays field hockey on grass or turf.
If you’re on a field hockey team, skip the ice-heavy names and use the Field-Ready list above, or lean toward names that work for either sport — animal names, or anything clever that doesn’t mention rinks or pucks.
If you’re playing ice hockey, most of this list is already built exactly for you.
