The Best Fantasy Football Team Names (2025)

It’s always fun to pick a clever name for your fantasy football team. Some like to reference popular football movies, while others prefer to make puns using player names.

On this page, we’ll use FantasyPros’ fantasy football team names resource to find some of our favorites. Without further ado, let’s get right into my favorite fantasy football team names for the 2025 NFL season.

The Best Fantasy Football Team Names of 2025

Bed, Bath & Bijan

The opponents better not sleep on this team with Bijan Robinson, who looks poised for a career year as the focal point in an improved Falcons offense. Your opponents may have to take a bath after dealing with this juggernaut.

Achane In The Membrane

Draft this stud Dolphins running back with elite receiving upside to match with this Cypress Hill classic. You can take De’Von Achane in the second round this year, giving you a chance to draft a truly insane team.

I’m Sorry Smith Jaxon

This one is my personal favorite that I found on our FantasyPros page. Clever pun based on a classic from OutKast. Even better, with Jaxon Smith-Njigba being my 2025 ‘Ride or Die‘ (shoutout, Matthew Berry), this may be the name of a few of my teams this season.

Olave Garden

Your fantasy football team will be a lot better than this “mid” Italian-American restaurant if you draft Chris Olave this year. Playing with Kellen Moore should result in more slot snaps and layup targets.

Mighty Morphin’ Bower Rangers

While Brock Bowers feels a bit overpriced in the second round, this name makes me want to take him. I always prefer names that are not only puns but also sound like an actual mascot, so this one made the list.

Run CMC

This one is boring and played out, but Christian McCaffrey is poised for a bounce-back season after an injury-plagued year in 2024. Expect McCaffrey to carry the load for your fantasy team, just like Run DMC did for hip hop back in the day.

Full Metcalf Jacket

As a Stanley Kubrick fan, I love this one, especially with DK Metcalf likely getting peppered with targets just like those soldiers were peppered with insults in the movie. Look for Metcalf to eclipse 1,200 yards for the first time since 2020.

Bone-Thugs-N-Montgomery

Big fan of this hip-hop group, whose fast-paced lyrics don’t exactly match up with David Montgomery‘s running style. I’m not huge on Montgomery this year, though, as it feels like Jahmyr Gibbs completes his takeover of the Lions’ backfield in 2025.

Better Call Pearsall

Ricky Pearsall is growing on me, as the 49ers deal with a limited wide receiver room due to Brandon Aiyuk‘s prolonged recovery from a torn ACL. Add in the reference to one of the best television characters in recent memory, and I’m in.

LaPorta Rico

Here’s a bonus choice for a fantasy football team name — one that I made up myself. Draft Sam LaPorta and Rico Dowdle to complete this pun. LaPorta is one of my favorite tight end targets, while Dowdle is a worthwhile stash as a backup running back to Chuba Hubbard.
