Definitely. I prefer using the traditional naming convention but that in itself requires 'meaning'. If your club is brand new and didn't result for a merger, you can't use United. If your club only plays football, you can't use Athletic or Sporting. When I eventually win the lotto, I'm founding the Association Football Club of Calgary (a.k.a AFC Calgary).
Edit: And as nik alluded to, unless you have a Royal Warrant you can't use Royal.
