First, they were called Feedback, then The Hype, and then U2.
During Several shown on the recent Vertigo Tour, Bono said that the original name for the band was the Larry Mullen Project. Larry Mullen, U2's Drummer, had posted a notice at school looking for band mates. This name, according to Bono, lasted for an afternoon.

When the group was whittled to it's current lineup, they named themselves Feedback and then eventually The Hype before finally becoming U2.
