I'm sure this will come up soon enough and I was pondering some ideas for something that is simple, but still feels original. Why don't we try some anacronyms? They are generally one word, but a solid and can say a lot. The great part is, we can make it our own. Here are a few I came up with. Tell me what you think.
VIGIL- Vigilant Inhuman Guardians Intervention League. (I like the name VIGIL, I'm just not super keen on the I and L. Any suggestions?)
SPEAR-- Superhuman Protection, Espionage, And Reconnaissance (I like this one a lot. It flows, is an obvious homage to SHIELD, but also has a more proactive feel to it. SHIELD guards the country, SPEAR would strike out at evil! And with our group of heroes, I think Protection, Espionage and Recon would all be elements that would come into play.)
GUARD- Guardians United, Avenging Reaction Division (Again, a great word for a superhero organization, just maybe some exchanged words might make it more stream line)
****
I also was thinking of something like LINE or STAND. Like, to draw a line in the sand against evil or taking a stand.
San Angela's Team Against Nefarious Deeds<-- serious about this
Lawful Investigation and Neutralization of Evil<--not so serious ;p
We could use awful hero quotes like- "This is a LINE you can't cross, Dr. Angryfist!" or "This is the end of the LINE for you, Gigantor, Dragon Whisperer!"
Could even have super hero names like Mason or Dixon..or...ok, I'll stop...
