What Is Your Adventuring Groups Name?

We don't usually name our groups. But I can remember two. Currently we are called "The Hunters of the Relic" campaign blog here http://web.mac.com/rcarey2/iWeb/Hunters of the Relic/Adventure Log/Adventure Log.html
Another group we called HKP or High Priest Killaz (much to the chagrin to one player). It was a joke mostly as a comment upon one PCs background but latter more to annoy an already annoying player. It wasn't his PC that was involved, his disdain stemmed from the anachronism of it all.

I think the first, and last, time a group I was in named the group was back in about 1982. We called our AD&D group the White Dragon Adventuring Club, due to the gnome illusionist with a wand of frost and a penchant to use it. Wow, did the fire giants hate us!

Other than that, I can't think of a group that has been named in the game or out of it. I had to name the Yahoo! Group I created for my latest group, so I guess you could call this group the Curmudgeon Gamers.
 

The Orc Slayers of Hardby - Greyhawk. They originally had no name and 'were thinking of one', when they stopped a large orc attack from the Cairn Hills into the farmsteads surrounding Hardby. The locals started calling them the Orc Slayers. Those from the city of Greyhawk came to know them as The Orc Slayers of Hardby, and after this was an 'established name', it was often shortened to the Orc Slayers.

The Band of the Hand - I think one of the players swiped this and repurposed it from another source.
 

Over 20 years of adventuring together and we have had very few names for our groups. One group was known simply as Trouble, the name given in response to a gate guards question on who we were - slightly before we knocked him silly.

The only other one I remember was the Sex Assasins. That group just always seemed to get their way into the evil temple/keep/etc by using sex appeal and then taking out the BBEG. Of course it helps when the typical group is comrpised of the female adventurers of the two ladies of our group.
 

When I was running The Shackled City AP, the group named themselves Cauldron's Faithful, which I thought was pretty cool.

I played in Wulf's Barakus/Vault of Larin Karr campaign and we were called Horace and the Lesser Cohorts. Horace was our paladin. Yes, it was sarcastic. ;)

Currently playing in a Slaughtergarde/Red Hand of Doom campaign but no name yet.
 

We use The All Powerful Demi-Gawds for our proper group name.
There was the infamous One Shoe Crew, an Iron Heroes group that was wont to cut off the left foot of NPCs that didn't cooperate fully.
