On January 23, the members of NewJeans—Minji, Hanni, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein—announced a contest inviting fans to suggest a temporary new group name. This initiative was shared through their Instagram account, jeanzforfree, with the group accepting submissions over the next two days.
Despite ADOR's warning stating, "ADOR maintains the position that the exclusive contract between ADOR and NewJeans remains valid. We are diligently following the legal procedures to verify this position. It can be considered a severe breach of contract for the members to carry out independent entertainment activities by asking for submissions of a new group name, and we find this very unfortunate," fans have submitted their suggestions for new names.
Korean netizens have also taken an interest in this contest and gathered in a popular online community to discuss it. These netizens also gave their suggestions and commented:
"New Dreams"
"I think New J would be good and they keep the meaning of NewJeans."
"Bunnies is perfect."
"NewZ"
"I hope they make a quick comeback."
"The Newz is good."
