Groups are meant to be a close circle of people that share as well as correspond on Facebook.
People have a tendency to develop them around points like:
- Topics
- Books (think about it like a publication club).
- Their business (sort of like an "insider's club").
- To sell items locally.
- Exclusive membership site.
- Support groups.
There is no "Incorrect" topic for a Group IMHO. Everything depends upon your:.

This name can be whatever you want and you can change it later on. But try to make the Group name memorable as well as searchable-- so people can find it.
