The Group Name Misinterpretations meme is a popular internet trope that relies on taking the names of famous bands, companies, or social groups in a strictly literal sense. These memes often follow the 'X fans when Y happens' format, where the punchline depicts the literal action described by the name—such as showing people actually rolling stones for 'The Rolling Stones' or someone deep in thought for 'Imagine Dragons.' This style of humor thrives on subverting expectations and using visual puns to highlight the absurdity of modern naming conventions. It gained significant traction on platforms like Reddit and TikTok, where creators compete to find the most creative or surreal ways to misinterpret well-known titles.
