Why are they called 49ers?
Sorrell suggested the team be named "49ers" after the voyagers who had rushed the West for gold. It is the only name the team has ever been affiliated with and San Francisco is the only city in which it has resided. The original team logo depicted San Francisco's wild beginnings.
