Gwinnett Braves delaying next round in 'Name the Team’ contest

Due to an “overwhelming” number of entries, the Gwinnett Braves are delaying the reveal of its six finalists in the “Name the Team” contest.

The Atlanta Braves’ AAA minor league affiliate is looking for a new name to distinguish themselves from the major league team at SunTrust Park. Fans have submitted more than 4,000 entries in the contest to find that new name, according to a Facebook post.

“The creativity in how these names tie into our area and the history of Gwinnett County gives us cause to carefully evaluate each and every name submitted,” the team said in the post. “This creates a difficult task in narrowing the list down to six names for the online voting contest.”
