15 Idols with Friendly Sounding Birth Names

Netizens discuss a list of idols who have friendly birth names.

The idols often reveal their real names on variety programs either by telling the name themselves or having a member of their group share it. Sometimes, idols may have embarrassing names or old fashioned names which might be the reasons they have adopted stage names.
