Arena team names
In 5.4 arena is going to be completely based of PR. This means there is no longer any arena teams. This is a problem because:

It removes a lot of the "team" feeling of arena

It does not allow the creation of team names.

It has its upsides however. Such as shorter queues and no useless battlegroups with 0 competition for free R1

Surely I can't be the only one who will miss arena team names. It was one of the best parts of arena to make up a witty/funny team name. Maybe there can be some way to retain team names in 5.4?

Didn't a blue already post something about this topic. I think he said that they are aware that people will miss the feeling of naming a team and Blizzard is trying to keep it somehow in the game.
I made a post about this already as Djretwomanx said, you can find it here: http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/7860656533#11

To sum up what was said:
We're aware that players have an attachment to having teams and an identifiable name to create a sense of comradeship and group achievement. We understand that this is something that will be lost with the new system and we're already looking into ways in which we can retain this feeling, however we have no news to share on this right now.
