Commanders Name Isn't Going Away Anytime Soon, Owner's Wife Says

The Washington Commanders' name is not one of the most popular names in the National Football League, and when new owner Josh Harris took over, there were some who hoped that maybe they'd change it again.

However, Harris' wife, Marjorie, recently said that the Commanders name is here to stay… at least for now.

Mrs. Harris was taking part in a Day of Service around the DC era, and the final stop of the day, according to Commanders Wire, was at a local school.

There, she spoke to the media and discussed the name situation, more specifically what people have said to her about it while she's been out in the community.

"As you would imagine, everybody has an opinion about the name," Harris said, perhaps even understating that a little bit. "Some good, some bad, some in the middle. And I think that, we have a lot of work to do, and so that name issue is going to be on the side for now until we can get things going."

So, switching up the name isn't a priority, and that's probably smart. Rebranding costs a fortune, and it might be smarter to spend that money when it looks like the team is on the cusp of some kind of new era on the field.

Still, Harris didn't entirely rule out the idea that the name could change down the line.

"Quite frankly, I had a whole day out in the community, and I kept referring to the team as the Commanders. And you know what? Sounds pretty good to me. So, for now, it’s the Commanders."

Lloyd Christmas, would you like to take this one?

Commanders is not the worst name in the world, but let's be honest, it feels like the kind of name you'd have to pick in the create-a-team mode of a video game, and only because it's the one that sucks the least out of all of the ones available.

But, hey, maybe someday will see a better name take its place.
