In Biblical times, groomsmen were sometimes required to kidnap the bride if the bride’s family didn’t give her permission to marry. Sometimes the groomsmen were even called upon to fight off the bride’s relatives![1]
Fortunately, the groomsmen of today have a much more civil list of duties. As a groomsman, your job is to support the groom throughout all of the bridal events.[2]
Although the title of “groomsman” suggests that these duties can only be performed by men, many women step up for their male friends as groomsmen. There are also men who support their female friends as “bridesmaids.” The duties of groomsmen and bridesmaids are alike and suitable for any gender.[2]
Our list of groomsmen group names includes names that are great for traditional or non-traditional groups. These names are particularly good for group chats but can represent the group in any context.

How to Create Your Own Groomsmen Group Names
Create your own groomsmen group names using the following tips:
- Use an existing nickname. If you have a nickname for your tight-knit friend group, it may be a perfect groomsmen group name. If not, you can simply create one! Get inspiration from favorite sports, food, music, or any other interest that your group shares.
- Get inspiration from a wedding-themed movie. For example, you might know of the movie Runaway Bride. Using that title as your inspiration, you could name your group “The Runaway Groomsmen.” You could also use movie characters or even locations to inspire a unique name for your group.
- Use the names of your groomsmen to create an acronym. To do this, list the first initial of each of your groomsmen, then decide how you’d like to order them for your acronym. Once you order the initials, simply assign an appropriate word to each, which will create the acronym. You can also make an acronym by choosing a random wedding-related word like “rose” and assigning a different word to each letter.
