Tips for a name that sticks
Pick one joke and commit
The best quiz names land a single clear gag, not three at once. 'Quizzical Eggheads' or 'The Cunning Linguists' beats a name trying to cram in a pun, a brag and a reference.
Read it in the host's voice
Your name gets announced out loud every round. Say it as if the quizmaster is reading it to the room — if it earns a laugh or a groan spoken aloud, it's a keeper.
Keep it clean enough for the room
Pub quizzes run in family pubs and workplaces, so a name the host is happy to read out beats an edgy one they'll skip. Clever lands better than crude anyway.
