Do you call idols by nicknames? (1 Viewer)

At least they improved with that!

Shinee, Exo, RV and NCT all have good stage names!

yeah Irene and Joy are really good names tbh.

 

[blueberries]

it’s even more funny coz SM must have thought they came up with such cool names

Kpop companies always do when it comes to English. I hate that Seungri was called Victory and Daesung D-Lite in Japan and Taeyang SOL..

To be more specific, do you usually use the stage name, the real name or a totally separate nickname.

Bcs for me, unless I really dislike the stage name, I'm going to use the stage name.
bcs like... Kai, Woozi, Suho, Haechan, Suga etc if the stage name is good and fits, I like using them.

The idols I use real names for (apart from the ones who don't even have a stage name) are ones with.... not it stage names, like EXO's Kyungsoo.

There is only.... one idol I think... for who I use a nickname.

And that would be my baby Hii-chan. I dunno why but hitomi always seems too long to say out or use. Hii-chan on the other hand is... cute and short and just I love it!

I definitely use Dubu too much for Dahyun

Sometimes I youtube search Dubu and get confused why official videos don't come up.

Actually I realized I use nicknames for a lot more idols than I originally thought lmao

Taengoo, Sica, Fany, Dubu, Hyejoo (Olivia Hye), and so on
