The album title

Does anyone know where the album title "Tim" came from? If you have a source, please edit the article to reflect this. I'd be interested to know Stuart mcmillen (talk) 11:00, 21 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Stuart mcmillen: This source is a little sketchy, but states that Manager Peter Jesperson told a Minneapolis radio station, "I clearly remember Paul [Westerberg] saying one day, 'I think we should call the album 'Tim.' I said, 'Why?' And he said, 'Because it's such a nice name.'" Seems believable enough, but I don't know if it would hold up as a verifiable source in the article.
