Their company, Source Music, made the official announcement, along with a heartwarming explanation behind the fandom name.
As many fans know, LE SSERAFIM’s name is an anagram for “I’M FEARLESS,” which they displayed in a motion release teaser unveiling their group name on March 27, 2022.

A month ago, fans asked member Yunjin about the fandom’s name. Fans were hilariously offering suggestions to speed up the process.
One fan asked if the group was discussing possible names in their meetings with the company, and Yunjin hilariously implied that picking a name during the meetings would be a disaster.
Fan: How about choosing a fandom name during a weekly meeting? It doesn’t matter if its kelp or oyster. Choose a fandom name for us.
Yunjin: Lololol are you sure it doesn’t matter? Our weekly meetings are pure chaos. Are you okay with that?
Now, three months after their debut, the wait is over as LE SSERAFIM has officially announced their fandom name, FEARNOT.

Wait.
FEARNOT = no reason to be afraid, similar to FEARLESS (LE SSERAFIM)
피어나 (FEARNOT) = bloom in korean
Genius. I actually love it ????

Another fan creatively used the motion trailers from LE SSERAFIM’s group name and fandom name announcement to suggest a future lightstick for the group.

One observant fan noticed that leader Chaewon may have hinted at the fandom name in a previous interview, to which Chaewon seemingly confirmed with a simple emoji.
