Before social media and cell phones, getting to chat with your family located around the globe was almost impossible. You’d maybe get to see them during the holidays or an occasional family vacation, which is when you could finally dish on the latest tea or laugh at inside jokes all together. Now, you have your phone with WhatsApp downloaded on it, so you can chat with whoever, whenever and wherever they may be. As long as you have a good Wi-Fi connection, your chat is going strong, so it’s time to make it official with a WhatsApp group name specifically for family members, near and far.

Your chat does a really good job at making it feel like your family is all in the same place. At any time of day, you can text your fam with whatever is on your mind or share a throwback pic you recently discovered. Since WhatsApp is available internationally, it makes it even easier to stay in touch. WhatsApp also comes in handy when you're traveling abroad and only have your Wi-Fi to keep your family updated on your adventures. Now that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) states that it’s less likely for fully vaccinated travelers to spread COVID-19, you’re ready to start planning a major getaway (or vaxication, if you will). The wanderlust is calling, so make sure you’re as prepared as possible with a proper WhatsApp family group chat name.

Once you’ve downloaded the app and added everyone you want to talk to, it’s time to come up with a WhatsApp group name for your family. Choosing the right name can be as difficult as figuring out where to travel to next, so make it easier by sorting through these 50 group names for family.
