Here's my utterly worthless .02 on the matter. Mostly I suffer this quietly, or grump about it around a campfire after too many beers. Nonetheless, it seems like there is no creativity in naming at all and folks just mad lib it. Maybe every subculture falls prey to this.

Rock n' Roll certainly does it...
My (adjective) (noun)
(Band leader's name) & the (adjective) (noun)
The (whatevers)

Overlanding is lousy with it...
(State) Overland
(State Nickname) Overland
(Geographical Region) Overland
(Something) Overland

May I implore you to take a page out of fantastic expeditions in the past? Name your rigs, or riff on something like NASA shuttle, or rocket missions. Name your group after Greek/Roman/Nordic mythology. Borrow from classic literature.

Please, for the love of creativity, don't become another bland, BLANK Overland, indiscernible from the sea of similarly monikered teams. If you do, I'll buy a dozen stickers and put them on EVERYTHING.

Gotta run. There are kids that need me to yell at them about being on my lawn.

I'd enjoy hearing you grump around a campfire anytime!

Seriously, Jeff - that was some top notch creative-criticism-grumping. I'm subscribed to your grump.

That's some pretty good advice. I named my "team" something generic mainly because it was a name not taken on Instagram, but it seems boring and pretty uncreative.

Hmmmmm lots of potential here. I like the OVERLAND first like Overland Bound...

You could go with something like "The Tortoises: An Overland Expedition team"

Or Dusty and the Roads, like a rock band.

Sorry @twin magnolias...

Bob (Badass Oberland Bunch) or other acronym

Broverland (If you're a bro)

My ski/bike team is called Team Bacon Strip.

I have an overland team name I am holding in reserve for when the kids are older...

I actually have a lot of ideas, most of them terrible. Now what I know someone is interested I'll share them. Mostly the terrible ones.

Where are yall based out of? I feel that always a good place to start when it comes to a team name. Or do yall have an inside joke of some type? If so base it around that

Example: if me and my geology guys formed a team it would likely be something along the lines of "Fluvial Coprolites" or "Larantide Orogeny"
