Fall Out Boy, where's Radioactive Man?

No seriously I'm wondering about this^^ Just remembered last night when seeing the Simpson ep where Milhouse would star as Fallout Boy on the Radioactive Man movie... so DID the band get their name off this minor character? I heard of a band called Final Fantasy and they DID name themselves after the game (not too popular at the moment so they said something on their website about no legal case yet, until the company complains^^)

WATCH OUT, RADIOACTIVE MAN! The sun is exploding again!

Heh heh. Had to say it.

Anyway, from Wikipedia:

While still unnamed, the band asked the audience at a college show what their band should be called, and an audience member yelled out "Fallout Boy," the name of superhero Radioactive Man's sidekick on the animated TV show The Simpsons. The band claims that, at the time, they were unaware of the character.

Oh what do ya know? (Heh, I always forget about Wiki to check sources on things^^)

Well, it's pretty random then... unless it was some sort of inside joke or something (like how my friend said when her bro went up to get his diploma at grade, one of his friends shouted "MILHOOOOOUSE!!!")
