Ok photos first so nobody gets bored 
I couldn't keep going with my old scheme but these guys are primarily drybrushing and washes so they should be sustainable. Mostly just gotta figure out the one white shoulder pad because they're soooo obnoxious. Either airbrush or I'll prime that arm white (like I've been doing for the robes anyway) probably.
Thoughts? They will win no awards but I think they look pretty cool from gaming distance. Blue, but not Ultras or Crimson Fists.
But they need a name. And there are So Many Chapters. Any thoughts? They have a lot of dark angels and ravenwing bits (and some Dark Vengeance models in the works to boot) so something Angel themed but that's one of the most used words in all of the chapters. Oblivion Angels should probably be black based anyway  Bit stuck, Halp!

Is 'Eavy Metal Calling?
|
Going on the emblem, but avoiding DA-sounding names:
Winged Blades
Angel's Blades (might already be a Chapter, not sure but it sounds familliar)
Seraph Swords
Or why not get some cod-Latin going on?
Azure Angels- Angeli Caeruleum
Sky Knights- Knights Caelum

Nice suggestions folks.  . Angel Blades and Seraph something are sticking out but I better let everything percolate.

Rotting Sorcerer of Nurgle

Knights of the Throne or Throne Knights is my pick if you wanted to do one of those names that has a deeper context. In the Bible, God's throne is made of lapis lazuli and we all know how the Dark Angels have most of their names from the Bible and its Apocrypha.
Edit: Knights of the Throne sounds better, imo.
