Yep. Their sister saw AC/DC written on her sewing machine [although it might have been a vacuum cleaner too, I don't remember for sure] and suggested that as their band name. Anyway it was their sister who saw it on some kind of householding technologic thing.
The band name AC/DC came from the back of Angus and Malcolm Young's sisters sewing machine
Angus and Malcolm Young saw the name AC/DC on the back of their sister's sewing machine and thought it would be a good name for the band because of its high energy type of music.
Ac/dc was thought up by Angus and Melcome when they looked on their sister's new sewing machine box and saw AC for alternating current and DC for Direct Current AC/DC stands for the current of electricity and Bon Scott (the group 1st singer) thought it sounded good
Angus and Malcolm Young claim they developed the idea for the band's name after seeing the acronym "AC/DC" on the back of a sewing machine owned by their sister ("AC/DC" is an abbreviation for "alternating current/direct current"). The brothers felt that this name symbolised the band's energy and power-driven performances.
You are probably thinking of Margaret. But was it a hairdryer or a vaccuum cleaner or an amplifier or a sewing machine, from which AC/DC got their name? According to "The Story of AC/DC: Let There Be Rock" by Susan Masino "They {i.e. "the band"} tossed around ideas for a band name and came up with "Third World War. Their sister Margaret had a better idea when she noticed the phrase AC/DC written on the back of her sewing machine. Some sources say it was a vaccum cleaner but I'm sticking with the sewing machine since Margaret would eventually make some of Angus's first schoolboy uniforms." Anyway... however they got their name, it is only because of AC/DC that "Rock an Roll will never die!" And it is definitely through Margaret's persistence that gave the Young boys enough umph to get started on their way to stardom!
they got the name from angus's sisters sewing machine the brand was ac/dc

AC/DC has the dash in the middle because it was named after a sticker on a sewing machine and that sewing machine was both alternating current and direct current.
It was created by Australian brothers Angus and Malcom young. They were thinking of a name whilst their sister was sewing. On the sewing machine she saw marked on"AC/DC" and sugested it.

No; the band is named after Alternating Current/Direct Current or AC/DC. This was adopted after they saw AC/DC printed on the sewing machine of the Young brothers older sister, Margaret
The bands members saw the letters AC/DC on Angus's sister's sewing machine. The letters stand for Alternating Current/Direct Current.
