Our Kansas City Royals were named after a long running livestock show, called the American Royal. This was where the FFA was formed. And the Chiefs were named after a popular Kansas City mayor who was instrumental in getting the Dallas Texans to move here. He was called Chief (like Perry White).

Your city might consider “The Working Families” and “Proletariat” or maybe “The People’s Revolutionaries.” Just a thought.
