What’s the story behind your Whatsapp group chat name?

Whether it be your chat is a group of friends prepping for a night out or you’re part of a society and you’re planning a meet up, pretty much everyone is included in a Whatsapp chat. Here are some of the weird and wonderful chat names across campus.

Sian, Second Year, Maths

“I don’t really know what our Whatsapp chat name means…”

“On nights out when we are all drunk we just come up with random sayings and then one of us ends up putting it as the chat name, hence the weirdness of our current one. Its all memories”

Zac, First Year, Education and Sports Education

“We aren’t in the first team for hockey, so it means we can drink more. But when we do win, the lads have to strawpedo a bottle of wine in the showers”

Nisha, Third Year, Biological Sciences

“My sister had a wedding and used loads of cupcakes that we were eating for ages after and then apparently I have a big butt so it kind of just went as the chat name”

Ellen and Niamh, Second Years, Sport and Exercise Science

“We were drunk and tried to create a group chat called ‘The Homies’ but you know how it is when you’ve had a drink…”

Mitchell, First Year, Linguistics 

“It’s pretty basic, I’m part of the first team in basketball”

Jake, Second Year, Maths

“None of us thought we would pass first year”

Charlotte, Second Year, Communication Studies and Linguistics 

 “Because we are the girls from C block”

Naim, Dan, Jordan and Jay, Second Years, Accounting and Finance, Economics and Business, Graphic Design

“We can always hear our house mate and his girlfriend at it when we are trying to watch ‘First Dates’ and it sounds like he’s about to put her in hospital”
