Even though most people think "Emo" stands for emotional, that is not entirely true. Emo is actually a term that the fans made up. Rites of Spring were the original emo band, and people used to scream "You're emo!" at the stage, hence the term.

However, the band got their name from a classical-type song made by musician Igor Chavinsky.

So emo supposedly came from a band called Rites of Spring, and evolved over the years.

emo is short for emotional hardcore and that's where it comes from as well
