How did the New York Mets get their team name?
The New York Yankees started out in Maryland, where they were called the Baltimore Orioles.* That was their hometown and their official name, for the years 1901-1902. Then the franchise moved northwards, to New York, where the team took the name New York Highlanders, in 1903.
While officially known as Highlanders, local sportswriters often referred to the team as the Yankees or Yanks, because it was much easier to type and fit in headlines. The name 'Yankees' comes from the fact that they were the American League team, and Americans are often referred to as Yanks by the British. So the same thought process was applied. The team decided in 1913 to make its nickname as Yankees its official name.
*The name was taken up again in Maryland, in 1954. But the newly formed Baltimore Orioles only shared the same name with the original team that went on to become the New York Yankees.
