Group creating woes

I have come to understand that creating an original group is difficult. What one person thinks is an original name gets upset because its not. I wanted to create a team but it appears that I wont be able to. If my partner quites I will not be making the team. I know I will need help but I don't want someone that I don't know. I might just scrap the whole project and give up on it oh well it wasn't meant to be i guess.
