Maybe I'm not looking in the right places, but when looking at one team's description of their name, it simply said that it was chosen because it's a simple acronym and is sometimes used by teams that like to emphasize the city name. That all makes sense, but why FC? I can't find out.
 
It stands for FOOTBALL CLUB. Some have AFC which is Association Football Club.
Soccer is Association Football.
