Hello everyone

I am in the process of setting up a new basketball club in real life.
We are to be called Midtbyen (Inner City or Mid Town in Norwegian) and I'm in need of a catchy nickname for the team. Any advice is appreciated.

Our main activities will be for children year 1-7.

Trondheim is the city. Founded in 997. Buried in this city was the viking King that became St. Olav and Harald Hardrade (the viking king from the battle of Stamford Bridge in 1066 which ended the viking era).

Midtbyen (the inner city) is the area which we will recruit and activate the kids from.

With the age range, I think using the popularity (and humor) of minions are suitable. Maybe there are some fitting minion merchandise that can be sold under license, or a deal to borrow a minion for a Logo, and could be used as an appealing marketing stunt?

Episenter Midtbyen
Play on town center. Epicenters are locations of earthquakes or underground explosions

Your US fans will enjoy this one though I don't think Norway sees many Ford vehicles.

Royal Right of Way
The quick search I did on Harald mentioned a road may have been paved over his burial site.
