Normally I would say yes, the Arizona Vikings just wouldn't fit. But from a business standpoint, should a corporation change it's name when it moves it's corporate headquarters? You would't say this if you saw the crowd at State Farm Stadium when the Vikings are in town. Oh boy. And don't get me started on stadiums and naming rights being advertisements for multi million corporations! I miss it when they were all about something other than a friggen commercial. With the exception of Miller Park for the Brewers which fits. And now they are going to change it to American Family Insurance Park? WTF?

Thinking again about the Chargers... I'd rename them the California Chargers.
Embrace that & reach out to other communities if they want in.
The Chargers are going to be the only AFC team in the state next season & beyond. Go all in, California Chargers has a nice ring to it. Besides, all it'll take is a few strong wins & playoff run in the new stadium & they'll be fine again. The Rams can't possibly hijack everyone.

Just because Los Angeles Chargers sounds so sloggery and bleh!

But you watch. Someday we will get a pro team that is named for a sponsor if we don't have one already. The Allstate Mayhem? The State Farm Plowers? The Progressive Flows? Gawd, I hope not! LOL
