The band originally named Mookie Blaylock after the NBA player decided to change their name to Pearl Jam to avoid legal issues and potential trademark conflicts. The new name was inspired by a type of jam made by the grandmother of one of the band members, which had a personal significance. The shift also allowed them to establish a unique identity in the music scene as they gained popularity.
