Better names for Existing Coasters

Can you think of any? I think if Millennium Force wasn't called Millennium Force, then it could be called Speed or something. Its not completely original, but it definantly describes the ride! Can anybody else think of any?

I think Millennium Force is a good name for a while but in a few years the name will feel old.

I think they should re-name Twister II at SFEG. Yes, it is the "son" to Twister at the original EG, but the name just doesn't make since. Think about it...Twister II...how about Furious Twister, or Twister Strikes Again, or something that makes sense!

Twisters Revenge.

They should change hercules to "pieceofcrapthatshouldbetorndown". no, just kidding.. That joke is way to overdone.

The only name that I can think of that desperately needs to be changed is "The Flying Coaster". Im bad at names, but that should be changed..

I don't understand why everyone bashes six flags for having unoriginal names, every Paramount park has the exact same names (Vortex, Top Gun, Ricochet, Hurler, Grizzly, etc etc) just as unoriginal if ya ask me.

I think Mantis needs to be called banshee ;)

I thought Son of Beast was original, I like it.

The worst day at Cedar Point is better than the best day at work.

Yeah, I forgot about The Flying Coaster, that should be changed immediatly! I don't care what it is called, might as well call if superman though since that is what it is called by the GP anyways. At least then they would be correct...

Whatever you do, dont change the name of "SHAFT OF TERROR"

Change The Beast and The Legend! Jeeze they are sooo boring.

end sarcasm

The Beast is perfectly named because of its location, magnitude, and roughness in the helix. The Legend is a good themed ride to Sleepy Hollow as well as a legendary ride.

I like Son of Beast. It reaffirmed that the ride would be intense, huge and have the trademark helix (helices). What would you have named SoB?

LocoBazooka--Sevendust, Nonpoint, Stereo Vent, Mushroomhead
Korn Tour (With no name)--Korn, Puddle of Mudd, Deadsy

As gross as that sounds, pretty much anything has to be better than Roller Soaker. I have not been on it myself but I do have to admit that it is a very lame name for a ride.

If it wasn't the name of a song in a musical, and there wasn't another coaster that sounds a lot like it, Greased Lightning would have been a great name for Xcellerator (I hope I spelled that right).

I think a great name for TFC would be "Mile High Flier." Paint it orange and blue after the team of the stadium next to ya and make us happy!

-----------------

It already is Orange and Blue. And the team you are talking about is the Broncos. Great Idea!

Don't forget about Drop Zone Stunt Tower, Scooby Doo's Ghoster Coaster (or something akin to that).
