They started out as a band called Xero, when they couldnt get a record deal, the lead singer left, and they recruited Chester Bennington. They renamed themselves to Hybrid Theory, and began performing. Due to legal reasons, their name had to be changed, so the changed their name to Linkin Park. They named their debut album "hybrid Theory", which became the bestselling album of 2001. Hope that answers your question. for more information, look them up on Wikipedia.
