After 29 years, fans of the iconic boy band NSYNC have finally found out the mystery behind the group’s name.
The revelation has sparked excitement and curiosity among loyal followers who have been eagerly awaiting this discovery for decades.
NSYNC, the iconic boy band, was formed in 1995 with members Chris, JC, Joey, Lance, and Justin.
NSYNC, one of the world’s most famous boy bands, was formed in 1995 and consisted of original members Chris Kirkpatrick, JC Chasez, Joey Fatone, Lance Bass, and Justin Timberlake.
In 2002, NSYNC left its fans disappointed by announcing a hiatus, just when they were at the peak of their fame with hits like ‘Bye Bye Bye’ and ‘It’s Gonna Be Me.’
Remarkably, they reunited in 2023 for the animated film Trolls Band Together, releasing the song ‘Better Place.’ Despite the passing years, the group has maintained its allure and continued to be beloved by fans.
However, it wasn’t until recently that many NSYNC fans realized they were unaware of the significance behind the band’s name.
On Reddit, the information surfaced, sparking a wave of reactions among the fan community.
The meaning behind the name NSYNC was revealed after 29 years leaving fans excited
Justin Timberlake revealed the origin of the name during an interview in 2001, giving credit to his mother for the inspiration.
He shared that when the group sang together for the first time, his mother commented on how “in sync” they sounded. The phrase resonated with the members, and they decided to incorporate it into their name.
Interestingly, the last letter of each member’s first name also contributed to the formation of the name NSYNS. The initials of Justin, Chris, Joey, Lance, and JC spell out the band’s name.

I listened to them a lot but was a backstreet fan. Still.. loved their music. Just assumed they were in sync lol. Never once did it cross my mind. I also don’t wonder what back street the boys were on, someone commented.
I always thought it was New Society (for) Young National Communists but turns out I was wrong. Wonder where I got that from, another suggested.
