The Tennessee Titans began play in 1960 as the Houston Oilers and were one of the charter teams of the American Football League. The Oilers moved to Tennessee in 1997 and were known as the Tennessee Oilers for the 1997 and 1998 seasons, playing home games in 1997 in Memphis and 1998 at Vanderbilt Stadium. Their new stadium, LP Field in Nashville, was completed before the 1999 season and Bud Adams, the owner of the team, wanted to change the name to reflect power and leadership. Titans was agreed upon, in part because Nashville is known as the 'Athens of the South', and since then the team has been known as the Tennessee Titans.
Adams has been the sole owner of the Titans since their formation in 1960 as the Houston Oilers.

If you are asking about the professional football team, they began their life in 1960. At that time, they were in Houston, Texas, and they used the name Houston Oilers (their logo was an oil well). They were originally in the American Football League, but ultimately became part of the National Football League. In 1997, team owner Bud Adams moved the team to Nashville, where he was promised a new stadium and other benefits. At first, the team played as the Tennessee Oilers, but in 1999, their name was changed to the Tennessee Titans: Bud Adams had said he wanted a name that conveyed an image of strength, power, and heroism.
