I don't think that article mentions his name:

Catching up with their competitors, the Steelers christen a mascot
Say hello to Steely McBeam
Thursday, August 09, 2007

By Robert Dvorchak, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

The name and the character may take some getting used to. But move over Stevie Steeler and The Terrible Fan: The mascot named yesterday as part of the 75th anniversary season of the Steelers is ... Steely McBeam.

It almost felt like the football gods were frowning yesterday at the Steelers' training camp on this break from tradition -- What's next? A steel-toed drill team? -- but it turned out to be nothing more than a few raindrops and the rumble of distant afternoon thunder.

Might be right, some agreement found here

After careful consideration of more than 70,000 applicants Steely McBeam, submitted by Diane Roles, was chosen. The following questions quickly come to mind: how awful are the other 69,000 names, is Diane an actual Steelers fan or a Cowboys fan living in Pennsylvania and finally is this name any better than Pound me in the Ass Steel Neil?

Wouldn't that have been 69,999 other names?
