Flyleaf came first. They were originally called Passerby and they released 3 EPs under that name, of which the first came out in 2002.

Flyleaf also hit the mainstream first, with their 2005 single "I'm So Sick" getting airplay on rock and alternative radio, whereas Paramore did not receive any significant airplay prior to their 2007 hit "Misery Business."

Why did they name their band flyleaf?

At first, Flyleaf wanted to be called Passerby, but someone had trademarked the name and wouldn't let them use it. They decided on Carbonflyleaf, but there was already a band called Carbonleaf (sp?). Finally, they presented the idea of just "Flyleaf" to their manager, and they got the name. Flyleaf chose the name because a flyleaf is the blank pieces of paper at the beginning and ends of a book used in olden days to clear thoughts. They thought this was a good representation of the clarity you feel when you first meet God. Since they are all Christian, though not a Christian band, they say that being a Christian affects their music and what they write.
