When it comes to deciding a K-Pop group or idol’s name, not only is it important to think of something that suits their concept and style, but the uniqueness of the name should also be considered. Names that are too similar to very common words can make it difficult to find search results when looking them up, due to how SEO (Search Engine Optimization) works. While some artists, such as BTS, have become successful enough on their own to surpass similar acronyms (“behind the scenes”), other groups haven’t been as fortunate.
Recently on Reddit, fans were asked to share which names of K-Pop groups and idols they think were the most poorly chosen due to how hard they are to search for, and these are 10 of their top answers.
1. Cool
2. E:U (EVERGLOW)

4. Wax
5. BOYFRIEND/BF
6. KINGDOM
7. WINNER
