Independent city united
Independent city SC
Either way exciting times in St Louis sports history this decade maybe a once in a lifetime experience to witness anything as special as this.

^^I would 110% support Eintracht St. Louis as a name.

Anybody going to the happy hour at UCBC?

I know it’s uninspired and common but I could see St. Louis United as the name. It checks so many boxes.

I suspect that Happy Hour will be a who's who of St. Louis. Also I am partial to the St. Louis Archers. Logo is a bow and arrow aiming up and pulled back in the shape of the arch.

Wow! A guy I work with said the exact same thing yesterday/same visual descriptions. Are you him?

How about....

Saint Louis Athletic Club or Athletic Club Saint Louis? A.C. St. Louis for short?

I'd like to see the Apotheosis featured in the logo in some way.

Just spent a little time thinking about potential names...

Saint Louis Athletic Club/Athletic Club Saint Louis
Athletic Saint Louis
United Saint Louis
Saint Louis City/Saint Louis City Football Club/Saint Louis City Soccer Club
Soccer Club Saint Louis
Football Club Saint Louis

Dang. That probably means they won't go with Athletic Club Saint Louis.

At this point, I think I'm pulling for Saint Louis City or United Saint Louis.

If you want to know why you want at least St. Louis in the name versus a Gateway or Brick City please listen to Taylor Twellman from this morning.

Taylor Twellman, ESPN Soccer Analyst, on Major League Soccer officially coming to St. Louis

How about Defiance St Louis. Or St Louis Defiance. I’m not crazy about stags or stallions or anything that starts with ST, since you don’t pronounce the S & T together in St Louis. No alliteration.

^ Defiance just reminds of that small town in St. Charles County. Not a fan personally.

My appreciation for science fiction aside, the team should not be named after a SyFy original series - even if it was set in a post-apocalyptic St. Louis.

pop_scientist · PostAug 20, 2019#16692019-08-20T23:33+00:00

I’m on board bringing back the St. Louis Stars...although, that’d be a nice throwback kit or 3rd kit in the future.

RockChalkSTL · PostAug 21, 2019#16702019-08-21T00:04+00:00

UCBC was packed.

Great event. Got to talk quickly with Jim K. He is really excited about having the team downtown and wants it to be successful and help grow DT West.

So when do we get specifics about the new stadium plan?

I was there too and I also spoke to JK. He's thrilled, of course, but also humbled by the amount of community sport. I told him "thanks for doing this and thanks for never giving up on the dream." He shook my hand and said, "that means so much to me. Thank you for your support."

I was also at the XFL thing in St. Charles...talk about a non-event. About a dozen guys were standing around and drinking. The St. Louis XFL President was there, talking to media. Howard Balzer was there and some camera men. MLS at UCBC had hundreds, maybe even a couple of thousand people in attendance.
