Seahawks have it too. Nothing stopping the hockey team from doing something like this. Use the native word for Thunderbird, or buy the name from the WHL team. Could also be the Totems.

Seattle Metropolitans or Seattle Totems? What Emerald City fans want to name the 32nd NHL team
It's never too early to speculate what Seattle's new hockey team will be called

Earlier this year, the Seattle Times polled fans over the course of a month asking what their vote would be regarding the team name. Over 140,000 votes were cast and a number of popular options emerged. Four team names advanced to the final few rounds of voting, with two going head-to-head in the fourth and final round. Here's how things shook out:

• 1st place: Seattle Sockeyes (37,543 total votes)
• 2nd place: Seattle Totems (30,140)
• 3rd place: Seattle Metropolitans (24,859)
• 4th place: Seattle Steelheads (18,700)

There were several other early-round options, including the Kraken, Sasquatch, Freeze, Emeralds, Pilots, Grunge, and Cascades. Also, the Fightin' Geoducks. (Yes, really.)

I also like Cascades.
