Is this leak a strategic way to publicly vet the name? Maybe not. Sounds very boring and random. Would bet the criteria was just alliteration and very inoffensive/vanilla.

Why does the wnba lean towards non-countable nouns? Also, how does Tempo express the objectives of the name search in any way? It isn't a horrible name, just pretty boring. It is basically the Pacers except Indy has the connection to auto racing at least. Is it a reference to the Canadian music industry? pretty weak as far as names go.

The city definitely has a rhythm or beat that we abide by

Reminds me of Ford's crappiest model of the 80s/90s. I'm old.

I didn't see it, until you mentioned it. But now it is all I can see.

This has the capability to turn into a really bad nickname, because there is so much available word play.

Headline: "Toronto Tempo stem the bleeding"
Headline: "The Tempo have a mess to clean up"
Headline " The Tempo's leaky defense leads to on court embarrassment"

Big time pass.

First car I had was a 91 Ford Tempo. Such a POS car :lol:

If this is the name, I sorta like it. You can also do a lot with TT initials.

LOL. That can't be the logo. It's too awful. It looks like an auto parts manufacturer merged with the Indiana Pacers.
