I need a team name for my pub quiz team tonight. Funniest name gets five points and the emcee usually rewards topical names. Any suggestions?

Somebody suggested “The Fighting Ignorants” for the Straight Dope Team or something. That might work.

“Choosy Moms Choose Cock.”

That’s one that won the annual poll at my regular Pub Quiz gig. It works better when hearing it than reading.

Perhaps to Dope-centric, but I suggest Cecil’s Weasels. On the theory that ‘weasel’ is a funny word and rhymes with Cecil.

There is a pub chain over here called Firkin - all their locations are called The [something beginning with F] & Firkin. We were getting beered up in one on what turned out to be quiz night and spontaneously formed a team and entered it under the name “The Fellatio & Firkin”. We came third IIRC and many drunken giggles were had as they announced this fact and our winnings.

You could go with the classic “Universally Challenged” which I despise but it’s always a guaranteed name of a team round these parts.

I personally prefer:  
Kylie Minogue’s Spunk Monastery
