Kinda sorta related, my college team changed its name in the 30s. The team name, like the Fighting Irish, was supposed to evoke the fierce tenacity of a particular ethnic group in central Europe. That ethnic group started, er, fiecely and tenaciously trying to eradicate many of the other ethnic groups in central Europe, and my college decided that we didn't want to be associated with them anymore. We are now an extinct flightless water fowl. Much less fiercly tenacious, but more accurately descriptive of a Division III team.
