The Long Beach Baseball Club has revealed the three finalists as their search for a new identity nears an end.

The months-long contest, which began in September, has narrowed down the three names from more than 1,300 community submissions. A group of six semifinalist names were selected in early-October and were narrowed down on Wednesday.

The final three names in contention are:

Long Beach Coast

Long Beach Parrots

Long Beach Regulators

Each name pays a certain homage to Long Beach's culture, and were decided upon after more than 4,000 votes were cast during the two weeks people could vote on the names. Team officials said that votes were cast online from more than 30 different states.
