Popular Kids
« on: August 21, 2010, 12:17:43 PM »

I'm writing a fanfic and needed to come up with like a name of a club or what a group of popular kids would call themseleves.

 EX: Like if anyone's read The Sweet Valley Books, they had the Unicorns and at one point Club-X.

so basically I want something that would suggest by hearing the name that these are the school's popular kids if that makes sense.
If anyone has any ideas please let me know.

Thanks.

Ours at my high school was called Entre Nu...we used greek looking letters even though it wasn't greek.  Certain girls were selected and "kidnapped" by older members...thin gs like being dressed funny, etc. was involved.  It was all in good fun.

Ah okay. I understand now. I was confused for a second thinking you were wanting a name that across the board people would know as for "the cool kids" and I thought that'd be impossible. Now that I know you're just looking for help on a name, it's all becoming clear haha. I shouldn't check the board after just waking up :(

Oh don't be sorry lol, i know i dont function well in the morning and if it wasnt something you had in your schools growing up, it would be confusing. I know for sure if I didnt know what it was and someone else asked Id think what are they wanting to know. :)

We never had any groups or clubs like that in high school... so I dunno. "Leadership" is the only one I can think of that my school had that's close to what you're thinking of. The leadership kids were always considered cool I guess.

"Cliques" were what they referred to them as in my school the year I was in public school. IT would be like "the ____ clique"... I.e., "the cheerleader clique", "the slutty clique"... Maybe that's from the unpopular viewpoint, but the girls called themselves that too LOL Well the slutty ones didn't. LMAO

I was going to say, we had plenty of names for the popular kids at least that's what they thought they were lol but i'm sure you wouldn't want to use any of those. I'm not sure if they called themselves anything though.

Pengi, Mare,  RokofAges75.

Loool ya even at my school the popular kids got called something most probably not their knowledge.  I just wanted to implement into my fic, like in highschool there would be a type of club/group with a certain name and it was made up of popular kids.  The feedback helps though bc actually the fic is gonna have the non-popular crowd too so they'll obviously be calling the popluar ones something either b ehind their back or to their faces.
ROFL now remnids me of the Plastics from Mean Girls hahah. Sorry hahha..

I think it's a good idea!  The Plastics, yeah - I was thinking of that too; I just couldn't remember the name for some reason (and I love that movie!).  We just didn't have a name for them like that at my school.
