The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

The legend behind the name The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus is this: the band picked their name by placing random words on a wall, and then blindfolding one of the members and choosing three words. "Its 100 percent completely arbitrary," Ronnie Winter has said. "When we started the band, we only cared about having a good time and writing good songs far more than coming up with some symbolic, incredibly intelligent name." Echoes guitarist Elias Reidy, "I think its funny when bands scramble their brains to try and come up with some unique, untouchable band name. Why waste time thinking of something when we could be concentrating on music instead? The locals loved it, so we went with it." Hey, whatever works!
