Band Name Origins:
- Rumored to possibly be from a line in the lost-classic *Ladies and Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains*: "If you work hard, maybe, in a couple of years time, you might be something different. At the moment, you’re just two white stripes." Submitted by: cornslaw
- They both have the last name of 'White'. Meg at first wanted names such as 'Bazooka' or 'The Peppermints" because it reminded her of childishness. With her favourite canda as the spiral peppermints they chose 'The White Stripes' symbolizing both their last name but the childishness in a peppermint candy with thier white stripes.

Why the Name is Stupid:
