Assistance with a name...anyone?

[boxstop7]

I'm looking to provide a name for my players' adventuring group. Right now, they're only 5th level characters. However, they're carrying a highly evil artifact and are taking it to a very "good" place to have it dealth with. Eventually, they will be dealing a LOT with denizens of the darker places in the world, and will end up at potentially epic levels to complete quests only epic-level types could complete. The group is as follows:

A human male cleric of Torm

A human male paladin of Tyr

A human female fighter

A femal elven wizard

A male elven rogue

I'm not looking for anything hugely dramatic, which is why I think I'm having trouble here. Something simple like (warning: cliche) "the fellowship of the ring". Simple, easy, concise. Yet well-known across the land to those who have the means to know. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Generally, a party gains a name from something that sets them apart from the general masses, either in their own minds or in the minds of the populace. Details that fit into this category are helpful, then, in naming a party. For instance:

I had a group where the first clue to our first quest was a raven's feather - thus, we became the Company of the Raven. I had another group that always seemed to be seeking things, and in turn were always sought by their enemies, thus they became known as The Seekers....

Stuff like that.

Okay Ashy...

They were hired to obtain the object by an evil wizard, but once they found out about its true nature, they didn't want to hand it over to him. One character died, and the paladin came in, under express orders to find it and bring it back to the church. They've got it, and there are others (drow) who want it for personal reasons (it's got one of their own trapped inside, and unless the soul is released he'll die...btw, he's their king). They don't want to hand it over to a drow either, so they're taking it to a place goverened by good people to destroy it. The wizard that hired them is dead, and this is what the paladin was told to do. If it helps, we've been calling it the Crucible. If you need more, let me know. And thanks!

How about Artifact Recovery and Delivery Service, Inc or the Light at the End of the Tunnel?

Seriously how are these:

The Bearers of the Faith

Light's Justicars

Warriors from Afar (if they intend to do a lot of traveling)

Wanderers in Darkness

The Holy Order of Truthfinders

The Infallible Five

The Saviors of the King

 

[Ashy]

Well, I am a big fan of alliteration, so you might not like some of these, but:

The Company of the Crucible
The Crucible Crusaders
Crucible Cohorts
Crucible Crushers

Some others:

Deliverers of Darkness
Crucible Bearers or Bearers of the Cruible
The Guardians of Good

You can never go wrong with a FIST motif, and there are five of you, and since I also like alliteration, I humbly submit:

The Ill-Greased Gauntlet

Find me a villain who wants a run-in with The Ill-Greased Gauntlet and I'll show you a high priest of Loviatar!
