According to Phil Lesh in his biography, the band named Greatful Dead picked its name from a dictionary. Jerry Garcia picked up an old Britannica World Language Dictionary and found Greatful Dead. its definition is "the soul of a dead person, or his angel, showing gratitude to someone who, as an act of charity, arranged their burial."
