CHARLOTTE, N.C. —

Charlotte basketball fans may come one step closer Thursday to the possibility of bringing the Hornets team name back to the Queen City.

Yahoo! Sports is reporting that the New Orleans Hornets will officially announce a name change Thursday.

That would mean that the Hornets name is free for the taking.

Before the Bobcats there was the Charlotte Hornets, and some people have been campaigning to bring the name back.

The Bring Back the Buzz group is sending out a survey to Bobcats season ticket holders.

They are asking them if they would support a name and color change for the team.
