Current Ravens majority owner Steve Bisciotti is the co-founder of Aerotek, a local Maryland temp agency specializing in Aerospace staffing (there are many aerospace contractors in the Baltimore-Washington area). That small initial company has since grown into the Allegis Group, a group of technical staffing agencies, of which Aerotek is a part.
In a newspaper article in Maryland, the soon to be Baltimore team owner posted something asking what the team name should be. There were about 5 names, and Ravens was chosen. The Ravens team name was famous because of Edgar Allan Poe's famous poem, the Raven.
The Baltimore Ravens team name was selected by fan vote shortly after owner Art Modell brought the franchise from Cleveland and left the Browns name and history there by legal agreement. The name Ravens was listed as one of the top 2 names that fans voted for (and ultimately chose) as poet Edgar Allan Poe lived and is buried just about a mile from M&T Bank Stadium, where the Ravens currently play. His famous poem "The Raven" written in Baltimore, was the inspiration for the name. Colts was the other name at the top of all the fan votes. Modell approached Colts owner Jim Irsay (still vilified in Baltimore) about buying the rights to the Colts name and former records/history, but he wanted $50 million for the privilege. Modell, though willing, was in no position financially to make such a transaction.
The Baltimore Ravens came to Baltimore in 1996 originally as the Cleveland Browns through owner Art Modell.

It has to be the 'Blood Raven' (2 Passanger mount) you join the person's (owner of the mount) group then you can push 'X' and hop on. Enjoy.! :)
The Baltimore Ravens were made when the Cleveland Browns decided to relocate to Baltimore. Baltimore had been upset that the Baltimore Colts had relocated to Indianapolis, and kept their team name and colors. So when Cleveland moved to Baltimore, they started new traditions with a new team name and uniforms. This allowed Cleveland to keep their team name and colors, when they eventually got a team again.
