According to their website: "We used to just be called blink, and then about a year and a half ago, we got a call from a lawyer from an irish band called blink, who had prior usage on the name, so we were forced to change our name. we decided just to add the number 182. there is no reason for the number, we just picked one at random." http://www.blink-182.org/facts.articles.html?show_article=5

Kim Siever is right. But later on, they found out that some things were accomadated with the number 182. Like one of the band members girlfriend lived exactly 182 miles away from him, etc.

Blink 182 started out simply as Blink but unknown to them their was already a band that went by the name Blink and when they found this out they decided to watch the movie Scarface starring Al Pacino and count how many times Al Pacino's charecter Tony Montana said the word fuck they counted that he said fuck 182 times so they added that number to the name and they became blink 182.
