Washington Wizards Logo History and Trivia

  • The Wizards logo history can be traced back to 1961, when the team was established with the name Chicago Packers. The "Packers" name was deemed unpopular since it was the same nickname used by NFL's Green Bay Packers, the rival of Chicago Bears. Hence the franchise name was later changed to Chicago Zephyrs the next season.

  • Later in 1963, the team was moved to Baltimore, Maryland and renamed Baltimore Bullets. The Bullets had some two distinct logos before moved to Washington in 1973.

  • After moving to Washington, at first the team was renamed to Capital Bullets, and later renamed to Washington Bullets the following season. Their logo just changed slightly with "Capital" and "Washington" marks respectively to reflect the team's name.
  • A more dramatic changes was applied to Washington Bullets logo in 1998 with their "Washington" mark removed.
  • The Bullets owner, Abe Pollin, announced to change the team's name in November 1995. The bullets name made Pollin uncomfortable since it had acquired violent overtone and high homocide and crime rate in early 1990s in Washington.
  • A contest was held to choose a new name. The finalists were the Dragons, Express, Stallions, Sea Dogs and Wizards. On May 15, 1987, the team's name officially became Washington Wizards.
  • The new name generated some controversy because "Wizard" is a rank in the Ku Klux Klan, and Washington has a large African American population.
