I agree that getting something to catch on will be kind of hard to do, but it could be possible. First, one name that everyone got behind would need to be picked out, and they all of us on here talking about it would have to try and promote it - emails to whoever could help get it out there (ESPN, TBS, Sports South, etc...) along with posting about it on other blogs and websites.

As for the name, I think Tomahawk Union is my leading choice at this point. I think it might be the most catchy sounding and it seems a few people have supported that one on here.

Still though, let's keep through ideas out there for now and see where it ends up.

Thanks to everyone for participating in this thread, it's been a fun one.

ThePractitioner,

First of all, what a genious idea for a thread. I don't know a Braves fan that hasn't brought this idea up one time or another. I think this thread will catch on and you should get a bunch of replies.

I've read a lot of great ideas and that is just what they are;great idea's. Yet i'm not sure that the word,"Union", will go over to big because of job related problems in America right now. But Tomahawk is definately a good start. Plus as Brave fans go,everybody has read the magazine 'Chop Talk" which would be great also.Maybe "Choptalk Reservation" or Tomahawk Reservation. Plus, here in Arkansas, they have the Razorback field in Little Rock called "War Memorial Stadium". We could take that and use part of it and call our nickname , Warpaint Memorial Reservation or Tomahawk Memorial". Plus, anyone that knows some really cool indian names could come up with something to honor our heritage when America was founded.

Anyways, I really think you are on to something here, so spread the word when you come up with something. I really like either Choptalk Reservation or Tomahawk Reservation.I think you should make a contest out of this. Because this was your idea, put together a Poll contest maybe with CBS.Who knows, this could get bigger than we thought!

Way to go Practitioner,

Hud--man

not sure about the whole reservation thing.....it doesn't really sound good and it is sorta degrading to the Native Americans (Indians are people from India)....reservations are where the Native Americans where forced to live after we came in and took all their land

what about Native Nation ( i also really like Bravo Nation)

this sounds the best:

"welcome to Bravo Nation and Bobby's Playground"

I'm pretty sure the whole point of this thread was to get away from using the word nation in the nickname, since the Red Sox already have that covered.  So Bravos nation doesn't really work

Ideas:

Order of the Tomahawk

Tomahawk Association

Chop Association

Fellowship of the Tomahawk/Tomahawk Fellowship

How about The Braves Brigade?

It's alliterative and fun!

Squaw Squad

Or throw something in there for southern pride like "Squaw South."  I dunno.  I do agree that "Braves Nation" is a little too generic.

Danger....I really like Braves Brigade.

You're right, it's alliterative and I think it's pretty catchy too.
