Every great superhero team has a name that sounds like a promise. This superhero team name generator makes names for hero alliances, secret agency teams, kids' superhero parties and the villain syndicates they fight.
Superhero team names and how they work
The first superhero team in comics was the Justice Society of America, in All Star Comics #3 in 1940.
- Hero alliances sound like a promise to protect: a collective, a vanguard, wardens.
- Agency teams sound official and a little secret: a codename and a number, like Meridian Nine.
- Kids' teams should be fun to shout at a birthday party: Team Muffins, the Unstoppable Comets.
- Villain teams are syndicates, cartels and brotherhoods: groups with a business plan.
The generator avoids the words the big comic teams made their own, like League, Avengers, Titans and Guardians, so every name is free of them.
Using a superhero team name
- For a party or a sports day, the kids' style gives friendly names that work on a T-shirt.
- For a story or game, pair a hero team with a villain team so the rivalry is built in.
- For anything you'll sell, check the name first. In the United States, Marvel and DC jointly own trade marks on the term "super heroes" for comics and related goods.
