I got this from my History of Rock teacher at Florida Atlantic University 19 years ago -

Led Zeppelin was formed as the New Yardbirds by Jimmy Page to complete the Yardbirds tour contract when they broke up mid-tour. See AllMusic for details

After that came the name change. Can't blame them. Led Zeppelin is a much cooler name than a new version of a broken up band.

Thanks to Dan Salmasian for that tidbit of info. I knew it'd come in handy one day!
