They don't have a football team, but St. Mary's in Memphis are called the Turkeys.

And then, St. Cecilia's in Nashville are called the Scarabs (some kind of Egyptian beetle).

 

I like Hendersonville's name: Commandos

 

If you go outside of Tennessee you can find all kinds of funky names.

 

Hoopston (Illinois) Cornjerkers

Sheldon (Iowa) Orabs (stands for orange and black)

Blooming Prairie (Minnesota) Awesome Blossoms

Chinook (Montana) Sugar Beeters

Virginia City (Nevada) Muckers

Fredericktown (Ohio) Freddies

Abington (Pennsylvania) Galloping Ghosts

Yuma (Arizona) Criminals (good name for a school, don't you think?)

 

And my favorite: Watersmeet (Michigan) Nimrods

 

Williams College Purple Cows. 

No, seriously. Look it up.
