The future members of the Band, over a period of several years, gradually joined the backing band for rockabilly singer Ronnie Hawkins, which was called the Hawks.  After Hawkins himself left, they were known briefly as the Levon Helm Sextet, but then quickly settled on the name that their fans have often heard, Levon and the Hawks.
