BABYMONSTER's rumored official fan club name receiving lukewarm response

It's rumored that YG Entertainment has trademarked BABYMONSTER's official fan club name, MONstiez

The name combines the words "MONSTER" and "bestiez" and is pronounced "Mons-teez" (like ATEEZ) according to the Korean pronunciation. 

The rumored fan club name is, however, garnering lukewarm response from fans, including many Korean netizens who frequent the online community 'Instiz'. 

Some commented,

"Whoever chose this has terrible naming sense."
"Why did no one stop them from choosing this..."
"It reminds me of the Monsterz (from the JTBC variety program 'Baseball Monsters')."
"Is it April Fool's again?"
"Please... no."
"Adding the 'z' at the end isn't cool at all. Montie would have been better."
"YG groups used to have really hip fan club names so what happened here..."
"It makes me think of Instiz and ATEEZ."
"I don't want to be a MONstiez who is on Instiz!"
"They're giving us (Instiz users) a shout out!"

What do you think of the rumored fan club name for BABYMONSTER fans?

I remember some fans suggesting as a joke that the fandom name should be either Baby Monitors or Babysitters. Honestly, either one of those two names would have been hilarious 😂😆😂😆😂
