I think there may have been some preliminary advertising using the "Gotham Knights" title - I can't be positive. When I read the term "Gotham Knights" throughout the thread, I knew exactly what he was talking about and seemed to have recalled the same thing.
In Paul Dini's "Batman Animated" book, many of the sketches for that show refer to it as "Gotham Knights" and there is some artwork in there that uses the "Gotham Knights" logo. Maybe that artwork had been floating around somewhere during that time... The book says that they had wanted it called "Batman Gotham Knights", but the network preferred "The New Batman Adventures". I'm still not sure if it ever aired as "Batman Gotham Knights", or if it was changed to "The New Batman Adventures" once the WB began the whole "The New Batman/Superman Adventures" thing. The first episode was called "Holiday Knights", a play on the original title, I'd imagine.
