I know the answer (I think). I'm curious what most of you's think... What does the band's name mean?

Although the band is labeled as Blink 182 on albums prior to Raynor's departure, the official rendering of the band's name is blink-182. The numbers 182 were added to the band's name to prevent a trademark conflict with the Irish pop group Blink. However, fans frequently refer to the band informally as 'Blink'.

The band says that they chose the numbers at random though Barker stated that the "182" was the U.S. radio code meaning 'homicide'.

I don't think any bands name make much sense. If the name they made up works they stick with it.
