Country Fandom Names: Meet the Church Choir, the Care Bears + More

The Church Choir. No Shoes Nation. The Care Bears. Country music's most dedicated fans have earned some pretty creative names -- some made up by the artists themselves and others given by passionate followers -- over the years.

Read on to learn the collective names given to fans of Ashley McBryde, Florida Georgia Line and more. Some of the origins are fairly obvious, while others ... well, they take some explanation.
