since she hates it, i'll tell the tale. When Chester joined, Linkin Park was originally called Hybrid Threory because they wanted the name to define the type of music they were playing. So from the name you got the idea that they were gunna be like rock and rap. But due to a trademark issue with a band called Hybrid, they were forced to change their name. Some discarded ideas (serious or not) were Clear (the band's favorite), Probing Lagers (which they thought was the lamest), Ten PM Stocker (because they would record every night at Mike's house on Stocker street and at 10 PM they had to stop) and Platinum Lotus Foundation. Eventually, they settled on Lincoln Park, suggested by Chester, because after band practice he would have to drive past there to get home. However the domain "lincolnpark.com" cost more than the band could afford, so they changed the spelling to Linkin Park. However, it has also been suggested that the name "Linkin Park" was suggested so that the band would appear right next to Limp Bizkit at record stores. ta da!
