A family group-chat name that preserves a joke, event, or membership from years ago and can no longer be changed.

The chat is now 40 people across four generations, but the name still says "Camping Trip 2019 🔥" or "The Cousins (5)". Renaming it would erase history; keeping it confuses newcomers. Groupnamefossils are the family's shortest monuments.

Etym. — group name + fossil — the name hardened into an artifact nobody can responsibly alter.
