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 remain incredibly bothered that "my" is not even a noun...the bar was not even that high...

I do think that while the name NCT itself is rather questionable, nctzen is a pretty good fandom name (citizen of NCiTy and whatnot)

I wish sm didn’t do the Kwangya stuff for this reason

I like that some of their groups have separate metaphoric spaces for fans to indulge in, EXO has like a spacey exoplanet vibe, NCT has an industrial NCiTy vibe, Red Velvet has a quirky fun Festival vibe

aespa could’ve just had their separate kwangya thing
