What is the origin of the name led zeppelin?

Page, Plant, Bonham and Jones played their first live show together on September 7, 1968, in Copenhagen. For this tour they were billed as "The Yardbirds, Featuring Jimmy Page." They were fulfilling a Yardbirds commitment that was still on the books from when the last incarnation of that band disbanded. The band goes on to record the first album in the studio and the plan was still to call the band "The New Yardbirds". As a contract was being signed with Atlantic Records and on the eve of their first gig following the album sessions, they received a cease and desist order from Chris Dreja's (founder of the original Yardbirds)attorney. So then recalling the famous Keith Moon joke, the name was changed to Led Zeppelin. **Fun Fact** The misspelling of lead to Led was to avoid any confusion over pronunciation. This whole answer was paraphrased from an interview with Jimmy Page from Guitar World Magazine/ March 2009.
