Utah Jazz new name?

If the new owner was going to change the name, what should they change it too?

My ideas: Bighorns, Bison/Buffalo, Jackrabbits, Cutthroats, Arches, Pando, Goblins, Golden Spikes, Horned Owls, Speed/flash (after several speed records on the salt flats), Black Diamonds.

I think the Utah Blues works pretty well.

Lakers give the name to Utah (Salt Lake City, Great Salt Lake) makes sense.

Jazz go to New Orleans

That's an awful idea (all of them).

Utah Jazz is a legendary name and it shouldn't ever be changed.

The Bonneville salt flats are in Utah so how about the Utah Flats????? Trade Mitchell for Kyrie and call it a day.

They won't change it, but if they ever did, the only acceptable name is the Stars, which was the ABA franchise name.

LA shouldn't have to find a new name.

There's plenty of room in the world for both the Lakers and the Salty Lakers.

Utah Salt(ies)

Alternatively, there's the unused Swamp Dragons that would've smashed merch sales had they not been idiots.

Kids would love this ****

From one music style they're not known for, to another. I dig it.

They could change it to the Utah Smiths after Joseph Smith, but Morrissey might sue them over that because he sucks.

They could offer the Jazz name back to NOLA in exchange for Zion, then call themselves the Utah Zions after Zion National Park.
