A lot of fans have been asking about team names, and it looks like we may be hearing them sooner rather than later. The XFL’s parent, Alpha Entertainment, filed multiple trademarks for potential team names for their Seattle franchise. Searching the USPTO shows entries for the Seattle Wild, Seattle Force, Seattle Fury, Seattle Dragons and Seattle Surge.
In doing some research on this, we stumbled upon a Reddit thread that says the reason for the multiple trademark filings could be so the league can hold a fan vote on the team name.
Shortly after we posted this article, Trademark Attorney, Josh Gerben put out a very good video on this, which you can view below:
The XFL filed trademark applications on 5 potential names for the Seattle team.
1. SEATTLE WILD
2. SEATTLE FORCE
3. SEATTLE FURY
4. SEATTLE DRAGONS
5. SEATTLE SURGEThe filings indicate one of these names will likely be the name of the Seattle team.#XFL
