I’ve spent nearly a decade hosting trivia nights. So when it comes to trivia names, I’ve seen it all. The best names for trivia teams are quick jokes or puns that express your team identity.
Are you subtle and witty? Crass and brash? Maybe you’re just a bunch of drunks?
Regardless of your team’s personality, you’ll get some inspiration from my collection of trivia team names for 2024. So let’s put on our thinking caps and establish your squad’s presence on the field of mental combat.

The Best Trivia Team Names for 2024
Is your trivia team a “same name every year” gang or a “new name every time” gang? Both approaches are valid, though one is harder to decide on, the other harder to remember.

The Ramones of Trivia
It doesn’t have to be the Ramones. It really can be any band. But let’s face it, the Ramones just feels right.
Dirty & Offensive Trivia Names
Remember that no matter how gross or inappropriate your team name is, the host has to read it.

This team name for trivia might be the dirtiest, most obscure thing I’ve ever written. But I can’t fully explain it in good taste.
Let’s just say that this is true mathematically, as well as for a certain style of lovemaking.
Red Wingmen
I think Well Read Wingmen could be an even better filthy trivia name. But it isn’t for every room.
You have to be playing with folks smart enough to get the pun and raunchy enough to like it.
Playing for Peeps

The dirty category wouldn’t be complete without some sex trivia team names. As far as the name goes, there’s nothing casual about it.

Funny Trivia Team Names
My trivia team naming tip of the day: Stay away from jokes that make sense on the page but are harder to get aloud. Whine and Dine may be a witty and apt description of your cool team name, but the room most likely won’t get it.
