Here is a list of 20 humorous fantasy football team names that you can use if you’re looking for some ideas to get your creative juices flowing.
This year, the executives at FPL have certainly excelled themselves with their inventiveness for puns throughout a variety of mediums, including music, movies, television, and even food for ideas.
1. Aaron Wan – Bissaka Nile
The game with the most traditional score of 1-0 comes first on the list, and it has the name of a certain right back for Manchester United. Straightforward, but very efficient.
2. Uptown dunk
Moving on to the tunes, the hit song was written by Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars is a perfect match for the name of Brighton defender Lewis Dunk.
3. You Tierney is everything
So, there you have it, a quick review for those FPL managers who are seasoned veterans. Fans of Arsenal football club recognized an opportunity to make a pun on the name of their left back by drawing inspiration from the classic song from the 1970s titled “You to Me Are Everything.”
4. Stranger Mings
Following some names of music groups, we will now move on to television. This clever fantasy football team name is a play on the name of the ever-popular show “Stranger Things” on Netflix. Additionally, it is applicable to Danny Ings’s name.
5. Thomas the Frank engine
In this instance, a perfect score of 10/10 for creativeness. When fans of Brentford football club want to pay respect to their manager, they use clever play on words involving the popular children’s train.
6. That’s so Craven
An additional children’s television show in which viewers of the Disney Channel who are familiar with Fulham may recognize the pun relating to the stadium.
7. Dumb and Dumb
One of Jim Carrey’s most successful movies has been turned into comic fodder for Newcastle fans, and the man himself would be proud of this accomplishment.
8. The Ward-Prowse, the Lion, and the Witch
To tell you the truth, I’m not totally certain whether or not this falls under the character restriction. If this is the case, then due to the movie adaptation of The Chronicles of Narnia, followers of the Saints have a new name to remember.
9. Neville wears Prada
Gary Neville, a pundit for Sky Sports who has been retired for many years, is unable to avoid the wrath of an FPL name because of a joke made about him. However, there is a relationship between Neville and Mode, but it does not happen frequently. The pun comes from the film starring Anne Hathaway.
10. Ake Breaky Heart
After butchering some movie titles, fantasy football execs decided to return to the world of music with their humorous name ideas. Here, the timeless song by Billy Ray Cyrus serves as a clever choice for the name of the team.
11. Blame Brucey
Even though Steve Bruce is no longer playing in the Premier League, supporters of Newcastle United may still want to “blame it on the Brucey.” But you can’t place the blame on the bright sun, the bright moon, or the wonderful times.
12. Flattery Jackson
In keeping with the Jackson 5 motif, the name of the artist lends itself well to a goalie-related nick moniker. It is up to you to decide whether you would like to do this in honor of Peter or Kasper.
13. Don’t look back Tanganga
A song that peaked at number one and is considered an Oasis classic would be an excellent choice for the Fantasy Premier League team of Tottenham Hotspur.
14. Maguire, the Earth, and the Wind

15. Rice, rice, and more rice, baby

16. Bowen Arrow
A humorous pun is used to pay honor to the West Ham winger with this FPL name, which is already famous for its pinpoint shooting accuracy.
17. Being Suspended by a Fred
Fans of Manchester United will be crossing their fingers and hoping that this name does not match their team’s top-four hopes.
18. The original works by Werner
This time, Chelsea fans decided to show their appreciation for their German attacker by purchasing chocolates. It’s a refreshing departure from the never-ending Fantasy Premier League teams playing “Find Timo.”
19. Well below the norm Liège
In this instance, Fantasy Premier League managers have ignored England’s toplight in pursuit of a good chuckle. The name of the Belgian team that has won the title of champion ten times in a row can be used to reflect the fact that many of us end up competing in the Fantasy Premier League.
20. Don’t have the faintest idea what’s going on
We are now able to conclude this list thanks to the supporters of Liverpool and Diogo Jota. When it comes to selecting their team, this is a mindset that many Fantasy Football managers can identify with.
