Robbie Vitrano, head of an advertising agency contracted to help re-brand the Hornets. Amongst other things, he’s trying to get a new name for the team starting in the 2013 season – or maybe an old one.
It’s one of the long-running jokes in the sports world that the Jazz currently live in one of America’s least Jazzy cities: Salt Lake City, Utah. In New Orleans, which lost the Jazz in 1979, they are treated as one of those remembered fragments of a golden past – in some neighborhoods, old Jazz T-shirts are almost as common as new Hornets ones.
So Vitrano thought – how could New Orleans get the Jazz back? One idea was to change the Hornets to “The Mormons” in an effort to force Utah’s hand and trade them for the team name.
“If you asked the average person in the city, I think they’d want that name back,” says Vitrano. “And they might be interested in something like actually taking the name and forcing the trade. We have the inspired opportunity to have some energy towards localizing this, whether it’s with a crazy idea or a shrewd idea.”
Why the not
Do it New Orleans. I dare you.Greg Miller @GregInUtah
The window of opportunity to change our name closed shortly after we moved to Utah from NOLA. We are Utah Jazz. And we always will be.
How about "New Orleans "?
Honestly, Utah Saints would make alot of sense. I'm not joking either. Latter-day Saints.
How about New Orleans Lottery Pickers?
Utah Polygamists
New Orleans Chocolate
Pretty bad when you cannot find anything linked to your city you can use as a positive brand.
If only we could find a creative name as Spurs.
Jazz was a great name, but it ain't coming back.

NO Team Leaders
New Orleans Sons
New Orleans Cuckolds
That could work and hey Chris Kaman would fit right in.
BR, any luck with Grande Belli on Twitter.
New Orleans Hurricanes tbh
Does that old, feeble Tom Benson really think another franchise that has had so much success as Utah is going to give up their name to a broke franchise like NO?
If NO wants a team to give up their name, then go to their local Arena team and get them to give up the name Voodo.
New Orleans Katrinas
NO Bounties
Voodoo would be nice. Creoles could fit. I was going to suggest s for the s protecting NO from the sea but well, you know
