Personally, I like Utah Outlaws, Utah Yeti, Utah Mammoth, Utah Swarm, and Utah Caribou, in no particular order 


I like Outlaws as well - seems there are quite a few logos out there:

I like Outlaws, it'd make for a neat logo I think 

 

I'll be interested to see what colours they ultimately end up going with too

The survey won't decide the eventual name, just help narrow things down, but it's interesting to see what they're considering

 

There will be another round of voting later this summer

These are pretty bad... I wouldn't be happy with any of them TBH.

 

I probably would have gone down this path.  Utah _____ (something to do with dinosaurs).  Or even go as far as Utah Dragons.

Utah Raptors... oh, wait...

Utah Barneys - the colour scheme speaks for itself 🤣

A dinosaur or dragon theme would be interesting

 

Dunno, I don't mind some of the options but some of them are definitely on the weaker side

Utah Ice.  Pretty simple and easy to say.  Vanilla Ice could be their song play and motto...

 

 

It fits:

Utah gets to rip off another city's team like Mr. Ice Baby ripped off the hook riff, for his song.

Swarm and Hive? Is there some kind of bee history in Utah that I don't know about?

 

Of the shortlist I think Outlaws is probably the best. I don't mind Swarm and Canyons is at least something Utah is very known for.

On the original name thread I thought a nod to their mighty 5 national parks would be fitting.  I know they want it start with Utah.  In a dream scenario where the new york rangers didn't exist something like calling them the "Canyon land Rangers" would be optimal.  Utah Dragons seems cool as well.

I dig the concept, the logo is one of the reasons I like the potential of a mammoth team 

 

They could do some real cool things with a few of their potential names

I generally don't like non-plural names, but Swarm could work, given the bee culture/history.

 

Yetis I like best for the pluralized ones.

 

Absolutely lame that it will take them a year to have it on place though.
