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!
