ROME, Ga. — Following in the footsteps of the Gwinnett Stripers adopting their own identity outside the "Braves" brand, the Rome Braves will be playing under a new name next season.

The team said Friday that for "over twenty years, Rome Professional Baseball has proudly donned the Braves' iconic tomahawk across its chest" but that "the time has come to usher in a new era of Minor League Baseball in Rome."

Rest assured: The Rome ball club will still be affiliated with the Braves.

However, "Our mission is to give the Rome community a brand as unique and special as the area itself is," the team said.

Some submissions already taken in the comments of the team's post on X play off songs, the word "roam," Italian themes borrowed from Rome, Italy or stuff that simply rhymes with "Rome."

We humbly submit the Rome Alones.
