| - All of the members of Fanny Pak had either taken classes from or danced with Matt Cady before they officially formed. Cady decided he wanted to form a crew for the show, and ran a mental audition of all the dancers he knew. He chose six dancers that he felt were six of the best he knew, and invited them all to join his group. Some of them already knew each other while others had never even seen other members of the crew before, but they felt that they clicked well from the beginning. Cady choreographed a piece, an early version of their routine from the live auditions, and they went out to casting under the name "Top Ramen". The producers felt that they were excellent dancers, but they didn't think that they had a good enough niche, and scrapped their name because it was copyrighted. One of the producers saw Cady wearing a bright sports jacket, and suggested that they try an '80s motif, to which Fanny Pak obliged. They had trouble coming up with a name, but Collins suggested that they get fanny packs to go with their '80s gig, and they decided to name their crew "The Fanny Pack". Lawson claimed that it was a great name because they were a "pack of dancers", but people tease that nobody thinks of their name that way. The Fanny Pack, which they later changed to "Fanny Pak" before going on the show, went back to the producers once again, and they were taken onto the show. The producers asked them if they had a special symbol or logo. Fanny Pak claimed they didn't have one, so the producers created their lightning bolt symbol. This caught Fanny Pak off guard, as they were expecting their symbol to be an actual fanny pack, but they came to love it later on.
