I definitely had the same thought. I was looking at Cecil Calvert, 2nd Baron Baltimore, after whom the city was named, but I'm not sure why you would name a school after him in the 20th century. (Side note: it's a real shame we can't be the Baltimore Barons. That sounds dope as h*ck.) The only other notable person from Baltimore I can think of is Edgar Allan Poe, and all things considered, I'm not sure he makes sense, especially considering that poetry isn't really an industry.

I saw a section on the museum's website called "Fueling the Automotive age" and I'd like to propose the name "Oilers" as Amoco and Crown-Central petroleum companies are based in Baltimore

Yeah, I liked that as an option, I just don't know that I like Oilers as the name. Don't know why, but maybe it has something to do with two professional sports teams using the name and so it doesn't seem college to me? Not sure what else to do though.

I like Chesapeake, especially if we do something related to water. I do think Baltimore U or U of Baltimore is a solid option too if we want to go that route.

If we're doing something fishing related, we could do Captains, as in the boat captain.

Since we're an older school, we could do Fishers, and use the cat animal dressed as an fisherman as an old school logo, since the wild cat was prevalent in Maryland.
