The NHL franchise formerly known as the Arizona Coyotes that is relocating to Utah next season will have a new team name in the near future.

Utah's NHL team released a list of 20 potential nicknames on Wednesday that are currently up for an online fan vote. Fans who take the survey can select up to four of the 20 team names they'd like to see advance to the next round.

Here's the full list:

• Utah Black Diamonds
• Utah Canyons
• Utah Ice
• Utah Fury
• Utah Frost
• Utah Outlaws
• Utah Mountaineers
• Utah HC
• Utah Glaciers
• Utah Venom
• Utah Blizzard
• Utah Freeze
• Utah Hive
• Utah Swarm
• Utah Yeti
• Utah Mammoth
• Utah Squall
• Utah Powder
• Utah Caribou
• Utah Blast

The first-round voting will remain open until May 22.

The franchise will wear jerseys that simply read "UTAH" next season. But once a team name is decided on, it will begin creating a new team identity—including a new logo, mascot and colors—that will debut for the 2025–26 NHL season.
