I think the Utah Mormons or the Utah Decafs have a great ring to it. Instead of the dancers being called the Jazz Dancers, they could be called The Coach's Wives.

NBA Files Trademark For New Orleans Pelicans, Four Others
Dec 18, 2012 8:38 PM EST
The NBA has filed trademarks for the New Orleans Pelicans, amongst four other potential nicknames on behalf of the New Orleans Hornets NBA Limited Partnership.
The Rougarou, Mosquitos, Swamp Dogs and Bullsharks are the other nicknames that have been filed for trademark.
A swamp dog is a Cajun nickname for an alligator, while Rougarou refers to a beast from Louisiana folklore.
New Orleans will likely adopt a red, blue and gold color scheme.

Rougarou flows better of the tongue than Pelican
What happened to naming them "New Orleans Krewe" or "New Orleans Brass". I thought that was still an option. Those were so tough.
New Orleans Rougarou sounds way better than pelicans and rougarou is basically French for werewolf. Imagine the mean logo they could come up with unless they hire the dude that made that soft grizzlies bear.
Swamp dog is a nickname for alligator. Why not just use the Gators?
