Name[change | change source]

The group's name, NewJeans, is a reference to the idea that jeans are a timeless fashion item and to the group's desire to become timeless (like jeans). The name also sounds similar to "new genes", a reference to the fresh image of the group made of young members, but also to the new generation of K-pop music they make.[2][3] Their fans are called "Bunnies".[4]
