Fantasy EFL 2024/25: 60 of the best and funniest team names

For years you have thought long and hard about that all-important Fantasy Premier League (FPL) team name. Now it’s not just your FPL squad that needs naming.

This season, with the launch of Fantasy EFL, we need another. At least we have three leagues of teams and players to take inspiration from!

Unlike in FPL, where you have a precious 20-character limit for your team name, the guys at the EFL have given us 40 characters of fun.

Mulling over the right moniker can be a five-minute job or one where the quest goes on for days and weeks.

If you are struggling to come up with one of your own, here are 60 team names based on players and teams from the world of the English Football League.
