[Albion] If our nickname wasn't "The Seagulls" what nickname would you choose for us and why?

Neither here nor there
I like Withdean Wombat's avatar and "The Useful Men". That would be my preferred nickname for the club.

Will resonate with anyone who knows the full words to Sussex by the Sea.

Before Seagulls we were in fact the Dolphins . One game against Crystal Palace the enemy were chanting Eagles and then a group of our supporters sang out Seagulls and it spread around the ground. The rest is history.

The Bakers or The Bakerboys

Has associations with a historical Brighton industry, Forfars who were in Brighton for 200 years and Sunblest, slightly more recent.

Also start with the letter "B" so have added onomatopoeic credentials.

What about The Bubble Boys? (A reference to Brighton's status as the home of the bubble car in the 60s.)

Keeping with the aquatic theme:

The Sea Lions (which isn't too far removed from our current nickname)

or The Bluegills
