The Cleveland Sirens officially say "hi."

The name of the WNBA expansion team in Cleveland was announced on Aug. 4. Set to begin play in the 2028 season, the Sirens will be the 16th WNBA franchise.

Obviously it's far too early to guess who might be playing or coaching for the Sirens, but people were excited about the name and logo release. Here are some reactions we gathered from social media:
