The franchise played the first season as the Chicago Packers before changing its name to the Zephyrs for its second season. In 1963, the team moved to Baltimore, the city with a rich military history, and became the Bullets. In 1973, the team moved to the neighboring Washington and became the Capital Bullets, and then renamed itself the Washington Bullets the following year. Not wanting to propagandize the murder weapon, the Washington Bullets changed its NBA team nickname and logo to Wizards in 1997.
