The annual challenge of naming your Fantasy team is nearly here again! While Fantasy Premier League (FPL) often gets all the attention, it’s once again the English Football League’s (EFL) turn to shine.
This season, with the upcoming launch of Fantasy EFL, we need another. And unlike FPL where most take inspiration from the 20 clubs, we get 72 to consider!
Additionally, unlike in FPL, where you have a precious 20-character limit for your team name, the EFL gave us 40 characters of fun last season.
If you’re finding it tough to conjure up a name for your Fantasy squad, we’ve got you covered! Here are 72 team names—one for each English Football League (EFL) club—inspired by players and teams from across the EFL.
We’ve also included a few bonuses at the bottom for generic names that never go amiss.
