Relatively recent realisation that their name is because its scouse for ‘the lads’

Reform Cast!

It’s more the scouse habit of adding la to the end of phrases. As in “alright la”

Furthermore, I’d always assumed Cast’s name was a pun based on the last line of the last song on The La’s album, “the glass is smashed/the change is cast”

pretty sure John Power said at some point this was true

Seems too much of a coincidence not to be. Good choice of name on that basis I think.
