Roller Derby Names for Women

I’ve been skating around the neighborhood with my niece and doing so has reminded me of roller derby. I really enjoyed going to watch the bouts in Nashville and it was fun to find out Tallahassee has a derby team, once the season starts. I’ll have to try going to watch them sometime! I mused many years ago that if I had a roller derby name, because they’re usually some kind of pun or twist on words, mine would be Tom Bruise. Every time I say it, I look around to see if anyone else thinks I’m as cool as I think I am.

I thought it would be fun to come up with a list of derby names for women, so here’s that list. My favorites are the last 3 at the bottom. Which are your favorites? These might already be in use by a derby player somewhere, I have no idea.
