I'm partial to simple names in soccer.
Names like Manchester City Football Club. Or Football Club Barcelona. Or Liverpool Football Club. Nice, simple, succinct, respectable, graceful. So in the MLS, I prefer names like Toronto FC, Sporting Kansas City, FC Dallas (
Dallas
). While I know that it makes sense to Americanize a lot of the team with American-like names, for some reason, it doesn't always seem to fit, many reasons given by Esch and Kara. I enjoy names like D.C. United, Seattle Sounders FC, Chivas USA, but that's about it. I do enjoy the Houston Dynamo name, for obvious reasons.
