I don’t see the point in that either, but it also makes your suggestion make even less sense to me.

They gave some season ticket holders some names and asked for their feedback. You don't think paying customers should be surveyed? That is an interesting perspective....

it's not like they are giving roster advice, this is the logo and team name here. Most companies that are well run listen to their paying customers as a way to stay ahead.

does not mean you do everything they say, but if something is unpopular or popular it gives the company organization valuable info and a new perspective.

Yep, this is called good business practice or due diligence.
 
Not scientific but I ran some of these names by my gf who is not from Cleveland. Her rankings:

Guardians (clear favorite)
Captains (it’s ok)

(large gap)

Spiders
Foresters (where are the forests? All I see are some woods) yes that’s a direct quote
Commodores

So outsiders perspective on that one. I think the top two are both fine. I am swinging back to Guardians. I saw it pointed out that Oliver Hazard Perry was a Guardian of the British Invasion. We have an active Coast Guard here. Can play up some of that as well with the Lake theme if we want.
