Why the Dual Name?
- The Origin: When the team moved from Syracuse to Philadelphia in 1963, a contest was held to pick a new name. The winner was "76ers," a tribute to the signing of the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia in 1776.
- Ease of Use: Newspaper writers immediately started using "Sixers" because it was much easier to fit into headlines.
