Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
"The band was called 'The Makers' in the early years, but profess to have changed their name after a friend’s (BBC London 94!.9 DJ Robert Elms) visit to Spandau, a borough of Berlin, the inspiration being from graffiti he saw in the lavatory of a club there!. The term Spandau Ballet referred to the spasms of the Nazi war criminals as they "danced at the end of the rope", when they were hanged at Spandau Prison!.[citation needed] This is a contentious point!. The more likely source of the name came in fact from graffiti on the wall of a lavatory in The Venue, London (Victoria) around 1980, where members of the originally named band worked!."Www@QuestionHome@Com
