Not that I'm disagreeing with you, but what was your suggestion again?
Literally thousands of people have contemplated this issue publicly, and I have yet to hear a single name that I would have been especially excited about. Even my own suggestion of "Stampede," which I thought was better than "Thunder."
Seriously, I think there are very few great team names available that lend themselves to major league sports these days, and even fewer that make sense for OKC.
