The finale of Mnet's 'Produce X101', the 4th season of the survival series, is fast approaching!

With only around 30 contestants remaining, fans of the series will soon find out which 11 of those contestants will earn the chance to debut in a global project boy group, promoting as a team for the length of 5 years. 

As many of you know, Mnet takes into consideration fans' suggestions when selecting the final name of the debut team. Just like during previous seasons, witty netizens couldn't hold back at the chance to come up with some of the craziest and most hilarious name suggestions! 

Remember, many of the names below were created in a joking/sarcastic manner!

2. Double S101 / Reason: I'm your man~
3. 1X1(One by One) / Reason: 1x1=1
4. foX / Reason: Because those PDs are sneaky just like foxes.

24. Billboard X / Reason: Do you seriously think this group can make it to the Billboard.

Some of netizens' reactions to reading the hilarious name suggestions included, "Wait why Song Jong Ki????

i honestly think 1X1 (One by One) is a really clever name. it has the "X" from this season and it goes with the "1 or I" theme that they have been using. ex I.O.I, WannaOne, and I*Zone
