Introduction
What do you call your family group chat? Starting a family group chat name is a simple way to keep in touch without feeling pressured. Families often use chats to share updates, plan events, and simply have fun conversations. Our family chat includes me, my husband, our children, and my 89-year-old mom—her funny emoji texts always brighten the conversation.
Group chats are a great way to stay connected whether you live far apart or in the same house. Platforms like WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger make it easy to keep in touch, share updates, and plan gatherings. Part of the fun is coming up with a creative name. A funny or quirky name sets the tone so everyone looks forward to checking their messages.
We asked in a parent group of over 260,000 members and found out that most families let their kids name the chat—and the results are hilarious and creative.
