They're both pretty bad, but, the LA Angels of Anaheim, was done in a sneaky way to honor an agreement with the City of Anaheim.
Plus, a lot of LA people, say that Orange County is separate from LA.

Golden Knights is terrible. It's a high school football name not a professional sports team. Angels is fine, the other stuff is window dressing almost everyone ignores.

Both names stink, but what was Foley thinking?
Why not the Silver Knights (Nevada is the Silver State)?
Plus, come on, do they call teams the "ATL Braves" or "The Cities Twins"?
Vegas, is just unprofessional and looks like X Box crap.

Easily Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. So unnecessary. We all know where Anaheim is located.
