Seems like you could also make some good names out of:

New York Giants (Giant Rats, maybe?)
Oakland Raiders (Ratland Raiders?)

...maybe the Baltimore Ravens and St. Louis Rams.

I had a team named the Plague Rats of Nihm. Painted them with dark green fur and blue rags.

My current skaven team is American Cheese. Each line-rat's name features the name of some sort of cheese in it somewhere. Whenever one of them does anything good, the crowd (me) lets out the cry of "Skreee! Cheeeese!" Great fun :)

LOL -- "Kallas Ratboys" is a GREAT NAME! If I'd thought of it first, I'd use it in a heartbeat.

But since the team is painted in red and black, I think I'll have to go with . . . Plague Posse.

For a new League (all rookies), I'm thinking of the following:

5 Linerats (250K)
2 Storm Vermin (180K)
1 Thrower (70K)
3 Gutter Runners (240K)
3 Re-rolls (180K)
8 Fan Factor (80K)

What do you think?

Naming your team so would at least save my Dwarfs some time in making that from them.

If you're into old Heavy Metal then there's "Rat Salad".
If I ever play in a BEach league then my 2nd ed Skaven will use the name Rat N' Roll (with Twisted Sister playing in the background: "You can't stop rat and roll...").

I know the TBBF has the Pittzburgh Sqeakers or similar, Warpington Ratskins is Neoliminal's team... New Yerk Rats maybe...New Eshin Ratriots? St. Ewwwees Rats?

I don't go for pun names too often. My Rats are called the Black Pass Bubonics....though my Blitzers are called Jeyy and "Silent" Bobb.

Next time my Skavs go out to play in the sand they're going to be the 7th Lightly Armoured - captained by Monty Mole.

My other favourite name is the Weil Culture, all the rats are named with puns on nasty contagious diseases. Caso' tha Sniffles and the Venereal Bede being good examples. I liked the twin rats Scrofulikit and Scrofudont too. SHould also add that this is a Pestilens team in Clan Bowl, but it'll be the basis of my next league team too I expect.

If you've seen Princess Bride, you know what it stands for. If not, get it on tape and watch it. :)
