According to The New York Times, Frisbee's name came from a Connecticut bakery, Frisbie Pie Co. Also, New England college students often tossed empty pie tins around for fun, referring to it as a "frisbie."

There was an old company known as "Frisbie Baking Company." They made pies and college students discovered that using the pie tins they could toss them to each other. Hence the Frisbee.
