    USFL had Thunder and Storm. I'm betting one of those are considered.

    Chicago has a soccer club named the Fire, don't they?

    Pioneers (I don’t give a fuck about Lewis and Clark feelings)

    Roses

    Rosebuds

    Dames (If Lillard was involved somehow)

    The Rip City Roses is completely untouchable as for as names go

    I'm down with Pioneers! My two youngest are Pioneer WBB players at Oregon City HS, and my oldest was a Pioneer WBB player for 4 years in high school and is now a Pioneer WBB freshman at Lewis and Clark.

    GO PIOS!

    *Edit*
    I like the idea of sticking with Portland Fire, though. Rip City Roses is pretty good, too.

    "Untouchable" as in "out of the question", or "so perfect it's in a tier by itself"?

    and the PIOS dominated women's HS basketball nationally for a number of years. Everyone in Oregon that's a women's round ball fan, knows of the Pioneers! And have for over 30 years....

    In would bet most WNBA teams would want to be called Roses or Rosebuds. More like Thorns or Hemp

    Portland Pride - there was an indoor soccer team in the 90s with this name that used a lion for the mascot. Not sure about using that mascot, but lots of ways to use the term Pride, especially in Portland.
