[A Sea of Red]

Due to some extenuating circumstances, we need to change our name. This would include a new domain name, as well. Since FlamesNation has always been about community, we thought it would be a great idea for you to let us know what you would like our new name to be. So, give us your best, most creative ideas, and in a couple weeks we'll pick our favorite.

One rule: your name suggestion cannot include "liberty", "flames", or "lu".

You know all the ways to reach us, but just in case you're new around here, let us know your idea by commenting on this post, or hitting us up on Twitter or on Facebook.

I would contribute but this is ridiculous and just proof LU has soft skin.

[Jonathan Carone]

Semalf Nation?

[ballah09]

can't use Jerryjokers because Jr will hit you with a lawsuit quicker then you can say flames nation .

serious note...Thefurnace? campbell has the creekisrising, maybe lynchburgmadness? What a joke i mean really? can't take criticism.

[R i]

I would recommend keeping the Nation part of the current name.

ChampionsNation, UniverstyNation , FalwellSportsNation , BlueAndRedNation, perhaps my favorite would be AflameNation

[ALAFlamesFan]

Whatever you choose don't tell us until you have it protected legally. Don't they see the value of a venue like this for fans to come together? Has to be way more of a positive than a negative for LU. Toughen up, Buttercup!

I like "the furnace" also.

Clearly they don't. I don't plan on coming to homecoming this year because of this. Maybe it is petty but I am sick of this.

[Cider Jim]

Maybe we should go old school and resurrect the name Talon Club.

MakeLibertyMountainGreatAgain - technically, this works.

I like something focusing around Furnace the best. For all they know though, we are talking about the Calgary Flames when referencing FlamesNation. Legally they shouldn't be able to shut down the site for that - or threaten anything of the sort.

I would imagine they are threatening taking away media credentials. Just a guess.

Probably true.

What a joke Liberty has become.

I like it.

LameNation. Get the F out would be a solid slogan.

[thepostman]

What a joke Liberty has become.

They blocked a blog on campus that was critical of the school back in 2003. It's not new. It has gotten old and I had hoped they had grown past this vi guess not.

[jcmanson]

I really, really wish I could speak more on this and answer all of your questions. It's so hard biting my tongue.

[thepostman]

I don't care anymore. Clearly My desire to support this school has taken a complete nose dive. So petty.

So, limited government is good...

In other news, I think Postie has lost it. You're a good man, hang in there!

Just let it go and move on. I really appreciate all that you and your crew have done to provide such a great place to talk about LU sports. It has kept me connected and engaged for years in a way I never would have sustained without it.

[olldflame]

I like some of the suggestions, but nothing really makes me say "that's it"

If you can't use Liberty, the public domain word that would clearly identify the school is Mountain
To include the Flames aspect words like fire, sparks, heat, furnace, or how about conflagration (that was for Cider) Also tinder and fuel

MountainSportsNation

To be fair, this is not unique to Liberty A lot of major college message boards do not use the school's name or official team nicknames because the school didn't let them, ie The Sabre for UVA and Blue & Gold News for WVU
