About fantasy football trophy names

A fantasy league trophy outlives every roster, so its name deserves more thought than the team names get. The classic move is to treat a joke with total seriousness: take a piece of fantasy vocabulary (the waiver wire, draft day, garbage time) and attach it to a grand object, which is how you get The Golden Waiver Wire, The Draft Day Chalice and The Garbage Time Goblet. The TV series The League did the same with The Shiva for its champion and The Sacko for last place.

This list is organized by what the hardware is for. There are champion's trophies, founder-style cups and jugs with invented everyday names (The Frank Dubinski Memorial Jug), last-place trophies built on toilets, spoons and basements (The Porcelain Throne, The Last Place Lamp), weekly awards for the high score or the points left on the bench, traveling trophies for a rivalry between two managers, division and consolation-bracket awards, and heirlooms for keeper and dynasty leagues such as The Back-to-Back Bookends.

The object changes as often as the joke: belts, jackets, rings, chalices, lanterns, skillets and a garden gnome or two. If your league already owns the trophy, reroll until a name matches the thing on the shelf.

How to choose fantasy football trophy names

  • Name the object you actually have. A repurposed bowling trophy can be The Secondhand Bowling Trophy, and a wrestling-style belt wants a name like The Undisputed Flex Belt.
  • Give last place its own name too. The Last Place Lamp or The Golden Plunger keeps the bottom of the standings interesting late in the season, and it stays a joke the whole league can laugh at.
  • A memorial-style name is funniest for a league legend who is alive and well: swap your founder or first commissioner into the pattern of The Delmar Pruitt Memorial Trophy.
  • Add weekly awards if the season drags. The High Score Hammer or a Bench Points Memorial Trophy that changes hands every week gives every manager something to play for.
  • Say the full name at the handover. "I hereby present The Draft Day Chalice" should sound a little too grand for a league of ten friends.

Frequently asked questions

What are good names for a fantasy football championship trophy?

Pair a fantasy term with a grand object: The Golden Waiver Wire, The Draft Day Chalice, The Snake Draft Scepter and The Perfect Lineup Plaque are all in the list. For a belt, try The League Title Belt or The Big Gold Buckle.

What should we call the last-place trophy?

Toilet, spoon and basement jokes are the tradition, as in The Porcelain Throne, The Golden Plunger and The Basement Key. Gentler options are The Participation Ribbon and The Better Luck Next Year Bucket.

What is a traveling or rivalry trophy in fantasy football?

It is a second trophy that two managers play for whenever they meet, the way college rivals play for a jug or a skillet. Name it after what the two of you share: The Roommates' Remote, The Shared Driveway Shovel or The In-Laws Cast Iron Pan.

Can we name the trophy after someone in the league?

Yes. The list uses invented everyday names such as The Frank Dubinski Memorial Jug and The Big Ron Memorial Shield to show the pattern. Replace the name with your founder, your commissioner or the manager who moved away.
