Matchbox 2o refers to 20 matches being in a book of matches, because there are 20 cigarettes in a box of cigs to be lit. Or, Matchbox Twenty is claimed to be a name that drummer/guitarist Paul Doucette came up with. When the band had first gotten together, they were sitting in a restaurant, and a guy walked in with a 20 on his shirt. "Matchbox Twenty" immediately hit Paul, and that's where their name came from.
