The Atlanta Falcons were named after a contest held in 1965 to choose the team's name. The winning submission was proposed by a local resident, who suggested the name "Falcons" because it represented a bird of prey known for its speed and agility, qualities that are desirable in a football team. The name also resonated with the community's appreciation for the state's rich wildlife. The Falcons were officially established as a franchise in the NFL in 1966.
