Sacramento Kings File for New Name: An attorney representing the owners of the Sacramento Kings has filed for four trademarks: Anaheim Royals, Anaheim Royals of Southern California, Orange County Royals and Los Angeles Royals. The team was known as the Royals from its 1949 founding in Rochester until its 1972 move to Kansas City. Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, a former NBA player, said the "likelihood of them leaving is probably greater than them staying, but it's not a done deal."

What's wrong with "the Los Angeles Royals of Anaheim in Orange County in Southern California"?
