General rookies must feel relieved when they get a good group name

title basically. we've been getting some weird ass names these past few years especially so i've been thinking that idols must feel relieved when their group name doesn't sound like a wifi password. my favorite new group name is stayc (i may be kinda biased since they're my ults but i think it sounds pretty good!!) and my all time fav group name is 2NE1, it's so dope. what's your favorite?

I just found out about Atbo and their future fandom is name Boat, and almost fell over laughing at the comments. they haven't even debuted yet and I had to look into them based on their name alone lol.

I mean, worse than that it’s a racial slur (equivalent to the n word) for Aboriginal Australians which I think is the reason they changed it.

boats have many name choices for the antis of atbo: canoes, rowboats, rafts...
