Hi, I’m Shreya Dawadi, and welcome to Lord of Sports! If you’ve ever found yourself staring at a blank page, trying to come up with the perfect name for your sports team or activity (and let’s face it, who hasn’t?), you’re in the right place.
Whether you’re rallying a squad for that after-work dodgeball league or brainstorming a killer moniker for your next solo adventure, I’m here to help you turn that blank page into something memorable.
Now, let me tell you a little story…
A few years back, I joined a local volleyball league. My team? Oh, we were good—like, “make-it-to-the-finals” good—but our name? It was…let’s just say uninspired. “Volleystars.” I mean, really? Volleystars? Every time the announcer called it out, I could feel the collective cringe from my teammates.
And that’s when it hit me: a great team name isn’t just a name—it’s an identity. It’s the rallying cry, the thing that makes you puff out your chest a little more when you hear it shouted from the sidelines.
That’s how Lord of Sports was born.
This blog is my way of helping teams, athletes, and sports enthusiasts find names that don’t just stick—they inspire.
Over the years, I’ve developed a knack for coming up with creative, clever, and downright fun names. (It probably helps that I also run another blog, Lord of Names, where I’ve spent years diving into the world of naming everything from book clubs to pets.)
But sports? Sports are personal for me. They’re about teamwork, grit, and a shared sense of purpose. I’ve been on teams that felt like family, and I’ve played solo sports where it was just me and the open road, battling my own limits. In every case, a name carried weight. It became part of the story.
So, what can you expect here?
Well, this isn’t some generic listicle site (ugh, no thanks). Every name I suggest comes from hours of brainstorming, inspiration from real-life sports culture, and a deep understanding of what makes names resonate. Need a name for your ultimate frisbee squad? Got you covered. Want something bold for your solo rock climbing pursuits? Let’s make it happen.
At the heart of it, Lord of Sports is about connection—between teammates, between athletes and their passions, and even between me and you. Because let’s be real: naming stuff is kind of my superpower. So pull up a chair, grab a coffee, and let’s find the name that’ll make your sports journey unforgettable.
What’s your team’s story? Let’s give it a name that tells the world exactly who you are.
Cheers,
Shreya Dawadi
