I was watching the x-files episode 1x11 named Eve. It was about a bunch of clones named Eve. One of the clones was named Eve 6 and I wondered if the band got it's name from the episode. A little googling revealed that sure enough they did.

Tony Fagenson, who auditioned while attending the University of Southern California, was an X-Files fan. After seeing the episode "Eve", which featured genetically engineered characters known as "Eves," he got the name from the character called Eve #6 who made a remark about biting a guard's eyeball, which Fagenson thought merited "Eve 6" as a band name.
