Contrary to popular belief, the band name acronym (JEW) is not a reference to the band's religious beliefs, nor to singer Jim Adkins. The band's name came from a crayon drawing made after an incident between Linton's (the guitarist) younger brothers, Jim and Ed Linton, who fought frequently. Jim usually won, but Ed sought revenge by drawing a picture of Jim shoving the Earth into his mouth; the picture bore the caption "Jimmy eat world".
