From fiction to pop culture to history, there are many notable trios you can take inspiration from when forming a group of three people.
Perhaps you and your team are like Harry, Hermione, and Ron — supportive friends who always stand up for each other.[1]
Or maybe you’re more like the Powerpuff Girls, each using your unique superpowers to work together toward a common goal.[2]
Whether you need a name for your best friend group, a small work team, or a small group chat, group names for trios can be casual and fun.
You’ll probably want the name to reference the number three or a famous trio, but other than that, you have total creative freedom!

How to Create a Good Group Name for Trios
Create an awesome, unique group name for three people using the following tips:
- Get inspiration from a variety of places. Our list includes famous groups of three, synonyms of words that mean three, and common phrases with references to three. You can get inspiration from these sources, too! Look up things like TV and movie character groups, things that come in threes, and bands with three members to generate ideas.
- Come up with a word that collectively describes your group. If you have a favorite activity, place, hobby, or food, try a version of it as a group name. Add “three” to it, and you have a silly but fun group name — like “The Three Burritos.” You can also consider the demographics of your group. For example, if the group includes three girls, you might want to choose a name focused on empowerment or feminine traits.
- Use humor and puns liberally. A name that makes your group laugh is the best type of name. This is particularly true for best friend groups; a funny name inspired by your shared sense of humor will remind you of your fondness for each other and why you enjoy one another’s company so much.
