All I can think about is Anne Germain, a british medium that used to be on spanish TV years ago...
ANGERME was proposed by second generation member Nakanishi Kana, and comes from a combination of the French words for angel (ange) and tear (larme).
That basically explains why there is a tear on the A

And the worst is that no french recognize it, because of the way they wrote it in katakana (and shorten it).
It sounds cute now.. but still, Up Front . Like Kimmy said, they totally should have hired someone just to check.

Damn, I've been out of the S/mileage loop for a while, haven't I? I thought there were only six girls in the group. There are three here I don't recognize. Where did they come from? The one on the far right on the bottom looks like a much prettier version of Ayaka.
It took some effort, but at least I'm able to recognize the six I know.
The name change stinks. Looks like I just might stay out of the loop.

The one on the far right is Murota Mizuki. You might remember her as the not-Rie backdancer to Lalala no Pipipi in 2012. Sasaki Rikako (on Ayaka's left) was in Lilium.
(speaking of which you should go watch the musical that I sent you. It might change your opinion of Ayaka.)

Yeaaaah, so... definitely calling the group "Ange" for short from now on. There's no way I can sanely type Angerme every time I want to mention the group.

Seems a good trade off, when I'll be used to not calling them S/mileage anymore.

Re: S/mileage name change officially announced
I've just realised something... To everyone saying "I'm still calling them S/mileage" I don't think you will be for long because this is exactly what a lot of people were saying when the "'14" was added to MoMusu but the majority are now calling them "MoMusu '14" :P

Re: S/mileage name change officially announced
I'm still calling them Morning Musume, but sometimes I say Mooningu Musume Wan-Hoe just for the lolzzzzz
It's not the same though, there is a huge difference between Morning Musume -> Morning Musume '14 and S/mileage -> ANGERME

Re: S/mileage name change officially announced
I only called them Mornin Musume '14 one time throughout the year. And the name'll be changing yet again.

Has there been a name change as drastic as this for any group in H!P history? Aside from Eggs becoming Kenshuusei, that is.
Has any popular group around the world in all of pop music history changed their name as drastically as this after they were already well known by the original name?

Re: S/mileage name change officially announced
I still call them Morning Musume. That's not really a name change but more of just an added identifier.
S/mileage's name change is also a group change. They want to be seen as a new group.

Taiyou to Ciscomoon and T&C Bomber, sort of. Maybe not this drastic though.

Re: S/mileage name change officially announced
Yeah, ANGERME's the only truly drastic name change to happen in the H!P universe. Like Star said, the 'xx for MM is only an extra identifier and such, not a true name change.
In a sense, Country Girls could vaguely count as a name change, since it's just changed the Musume in Country Musume to it's English equivalent of girl.

Re: S/mileage name change officially announced
I saw it on Instagram first and was like 'who came up with that prank?? lol'
Little did I know it was for real hah.
Honestly I don't mind it. It's kinda badass.

Re: S/mileage name change officially announced
You know they screwed up when they remove all mention of Angerme and start using the katakana version of the logo right away. Haha. Poor Smileage can't catch a break with their group names.
This is a place where a signature goes. Enjoy some Airi instead.

Good, I'm glad their management is noticing because this name is a joke.

Granted I don't follow MM a lot anymore, but I think barely anybody adds the 14.
