Little Mix were forced to change original band name after learning 'rude' meaning They became the first and only girl group to win The X Factor - but it wasn't always smooth sailing for Little Mix.
A statement on Digital Spy reads: "Little Mix infamously had to change their name half way through the live show stages of The X Factor back in 2011 from Rhythmix, after facing a legal challenge for the name from a charity.
However, not everyone likes their name, with one Reddit user claiming: "Little Mix is an awful name for a pop group.".
"However, did you know that that wasn't the first time the girl group had to switch their name during the competition, and that their original name had a very amusing but unintended risqué meaning?.
However, those who remember their 2011 audience on The X Factor will know the girl group changed their name three times after facing a series of issues.
