I have no idea why cricket clubs keeps such types names.... Can you remember some football team names with such peculiar words? They generally keep clubs names relating to that city they based on. Like liverpool, manchester city/ united, real madrid etc.... Even indias football teams names are good ....

Because the majority share holders are from Gujrat

the names of IPL teams were most likely copied from the American Football model
List of North American football nicknames - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

G-Men" – New York Giants, NFL; initial of team name, possibly a play on the term for a government (e.g. FBI) agent[17]
"Goats" – Saint Louis Rams, NFL; when playing poorly[18]
"Iggles" – Philadelphia Eagles, NFL; reference to how some Philadelphians pronounce "Eagles"
"Jags" – Jacksonville Jaguars, NFL; abbreviation of team name
"Gang Green" - New York Jets, NFL; used by supporters (reference to medical condition that is difficult to overcome)(Green Bay Packers), NFL; used by supporters since the mid 1970s; also the name of the unofficial team mascot who is given home field credentials.

albeit in a more over the top and tasteless way
KKR and Indi have the worst names in IPL

They changed the name after a lot of protest to 'Kochi Tuskers' . Much better than Indi Commandos Kerala
