And now for something completely different

The newest major league franchise is going to be a Seattle NHL team. As far as I know they have not chosen a name for that team yet.
What do you think they should be called? Here is an article:
Kraken is one of the suggestions.
Totems, Emeralds, Rainiers, Sockeyes, Renegades, Sea Lions, Seals, Evergreens, Whales, Cougars, Eagles and Firebirds also made the list of 13 potential names the Seattle ownership group registered for the city’s latest expansion team.
According to ESPN Sports Business Reporter Darren Rovell, oddsmakers in Vegas have the“Seattle Totems” as an early-minus favorite.
One name absent from the list is the Seattle Metropolitans, the name of Seattle’s former team that became the first American club to win a Stanley Cup in 1917.
Also, somewhere in Seattle is a Seattle division 6 level hockey team called The Flying Monkees.
And since Seattle is the home of Microsoft...how about the Seattle Software.
Or, the Amazons.
Of course, in homage to the aircraft industry that was centered there, there used to be the Supersonics. no more.
Of course Seattle Space Needles would be appropriate.
Someone also suggested the "Starpucks".
Ha, since Baltimore wanted bird names, to go with the Seahawks, I nominate the Sea Gulls.
Salmons? Squids, Shrimp? Slugs? Don't laugh UC Santa Cruz are the mighty Banana Slugs.

Yea, Seahawks, Mariners. I guess they gotta go with some nautical type name. I guess they could be the " Seattle 300 Days of Rain".
And, you know, Baltimore did have at one time the NBA team The Bullets....which has since moved to DC. But if they still had them, then instead of Ravens they could have stuck with a theme. You could have had any of these names which are the types of guns most used in street crimes:
.357 Magnum
.38 Special
.22 caliber
.25 caliber
9 millimeter
.380 caliber
.44 Magnum
.45 caliber
.32 caliber revolvers

What two NFL teams, one in the AFC and one in the NFC have nicknames that describe exactly the same thing?

Nice question, I like it.
Some possibilities, off the top of my head: Giants and Titans? Both huge mythical creatures. Panthers and Jaguars? No, both big cats, but not the same species.
Raiders and Buccaneers could be considered the same thing more or less...but each can have other definitions.
I would not think that a Seahawk is the same as either an Eagle or a Falcon (besides...all those are NFC teams)
I think I have to stick with Giants and Titans.

You're right.. in that its what I was thinking...however after looking it up they are not exactIy the same thing ..should have verified it first before posting.
As nouns the difference between giant and titan is that giant is a mythical human of very great size while titan is something or someone of very large stature, greatness, or godliness.
A Pirate and Buccaneer would be the same thing.
The Bengals and the Tigers another one...
