Cool clan names

Quick tips
- Keep the full name to two or three words so it fits in Discord, game menus and on a scoreboard.
- Pick the clan tag at the same time. Three or four letters that echo the full name are easiest to recognize.
- Say it out loud on voice chat. If it is hard to shout during a fight, it is too long.
- Check that the name is not already taken in your main game and that the tag is free on your platform.
- Avoid jokes that only work this month. A clan name should still feel right a year from now.
