I voted for mythological names, but seeing as how the superheroes are in the lead (at least for the moment), is it okay if I make a few suggestions?

If superheroes wins, I'd really like to have one of the following as a team name: Aeon Flux, The Scarlet Witch, Rogue, or Gi from the Captain Planet cartoon. Could any of those end up as possible team names should the superheroes category win?

Ooh I like Rogue and Aeon Flux (I'm not familiar with the others). What about Pheonix from X-Men. Or Poison Ivy (ok, she's a bad guy, but I love her).

Or the classics, Wonder Woman and Catwoman.

I am so glad that you mentioned Poison Ivy! I actually had written her into my post, too, but then edited her out because I was worried that my list was starting to sound a bit dark. I would also love to be on a Poison Ivy team! She kicks butt.

The Scarlet Witch is a Marvel character and was in some of the X-Men stories. In her earlier incarnations, she can manipulate probability, but not perfectly, which I thought was a nice kind of metaphor for weight loss (you can eat on plan and exercise regularly and you still might not see what you want on the scale for a while).

I like the more classic superheroes. I have never heard of those other ones ;)

In the event that I'm forced to be on a team named after a female superhero, I'm with Nienna, I opt for the newer superheroes. Psylocke, Jean Grey, Storm; any woman who was actually a stand-alone complex, and not just a womanized version of the male predecessor (Batwoman, Superwoman, all the other BS wannabes). And I'm also in support of any character who's signature outfit didn't consist of a tail, cat ears, or go-go boots.

I like a lot of the suggestions for the Team names. Here is a compilation and some of my suggestions for popular, well-known heroines.

Super Heroines:
Wonder Woman
Bat Girl/Oracle - Batman Universe
Black Canary - Batman Universe
Huntress - Batman Universe
Rogue - X-Men Universe
Storm - X-Men Universe
Jean Grey/ Phoenix - X-Men Universe
Psylocke - X-Men Universe
Black Widow - Iron man Universe
Aeon Flux
Scarlet Witch - X-Men Universe
Shadow Cat - X-Men Universe
Gi - Captain Planet Universe
She-Ra
Chun-Li - Street Fighter
Cammie - Street Fighter
Vampirella
Xena - Xena Warrior Princess


Anti-Heroines (They are just misunderstood):
Catwoman - Batman Universe
Poison Ivy - Batman Universe
Harley Quinn - Batman Universe
Black Cat - Spiderman Universe
Elektra - Daredevil Universe
Mystique - X-men Universe

I think it would be fun if we had a heroine vs. anti-heroine teams.

My favs are Rogue, Catwoman, Chun-Li, and Elektra.
