SunTrust Park will eventually bear ‘Truist’ moniker due to bank merger

As you may know, the Braves’ current ballpark is named SunTrust Park, which doesn’t reflect the franchise’s unyielding faith in our solar system’s star, but rather the name of one of the 20 largest bank holding companies in the United States. However, that bank holding company merged with another large bank holding company, and today they’ve chosen a new name, as reported by the Atlanta Journal Constitution.

The name of the entity resulting from the merger of SunTrust Banks and BB&T Corporation will be...

...wait for it...

Truist Bank.
