The St. Louis National League was started in 1876.

The team was originally called the Brown Stockings, and later, simply the Browns.

In 1899, the name Browns was changed to the Perfectos -- and the team color became red.

In regards to their new color, a sportswriter heard a lady remark, "What a lovely shade of cardinal," and then used Cardinals as a nickname.

The team officially changed its name from the Perfectos to the Cardinals in 1900.

(This is summarized from the Cardinals official Web site.)

Note: The St.Louis Browns did win many world seris but it was after St Louis Cardinals changed there named and another team took St.Louis Browns as there team. The Cardinals did not win them world seris.st.louis was known as the st.louis brown stocking in 1828 and thay was aa
