With Jennifer Lopez in the news yet again, I recently learned that her fans are called “J-Lovers.” Once I heard that, I had to look up other fandom names, and boy, did I find a lot!

From musicians to actors and actresses to movies to shows, it seems there are fandoms for everything! Some of these fandom names are hilarious! Here are some of the names I found interesting, from well-known fandoms to very niche. Most are plays on names, but some are extremely unique!
