The club will be known as Nashville SC. As wanted by fans, it is the same name as Nashville’s pro soccer team Nashville SC. The team's colors will be "acoustic blue" and "electric gold," as the fans wanted to retain gold as the primary color of the club.

The new Nashville SC crest is 'intended to evoke sound waves, in tune with the city's reputation as "Music City."'

“Since I first got involved in this effort, I have said that I wanted to do something ‘In Nashville, for Nashville, with Nashville.’ This team will always be about the fans and creating a team and brand that they are proud to support,” said Ingram in a team statement. “The Nashville SC name and primary gold color, along with the themes of sound and energy in the logo, embody our city and our fans who have been with us from the start.”

“We wanted a name and an identity that was authentic in the sport. It says exactly who we represent and who we are, Nashville Soccer Club,” said Nashville MLS CEO Ian Ayre. “Our announcement is another step forward, and we have many others to take, but it is important to start that with a clear identity of who we are. Gold is our primary club color, and we need to own that color in the sport.

Nashville SC will play in a new, 27,500-seat soccer stadium at The Fairgrounds Nashville. The stadium is expected to be completed in time for the start of the 2021 season. For their inaugural campaign, Nashville will play at Nissan Stadium.
