Association football club names : ウィキペディア英語版 | Association football club names
Association Football club names are a part of the sport's culture, reflecting century-old traditions. Club names may reflect geographical, cultural, religious or political affiliations – or simply be the brand name of a club's primary sponsor. Because of the British origin of the modern game and the prevalence of the English language, many clubs, even outside Europe, have their names written in English. Official names often also contain common component (prepositions, conjunctions, etc.) In Europe, many (if not most) clubs are named after their towns or cities (e.g. "Deportivo La Coruña", "Liverpool F.C.", "Hamburger SV"). In South America, clubs are more likely to have names that don't bear the city's name. Some clubs, like Hansa Rostock or Torpedo Moscow may have both. ==Common versus official usage==
It is not uncommon for a club to be known in common usage by a name other than its official name, or the name on the badge. Other clubs are more usually known by nicknames or contractions of their full names, for instance, Vasco da Gama is usually called simply "Vasco", F.C. Internazionale Milano is contracted to ''Inter'' or ''Inter Milan'', Sporting Clube de Portugal is often called ''Sporting'' or ''Sporting Lisbon''. Manchester United is often shortened to ''Man Utd'', and ''Lyon'' used instead of Olympique Lyonnais. Some clubs are commonly referred to by their initials, such as QPR, for Queens Park Rangers.
