According to CCM Magazine, the band took their name from Philippians 2.{{cite web|url=http://www.ccmmagazine.com/magazine/2013/jul/63.htm|title=Rock Spotlight: Shine Bright Baby|last=Argyrakis|first=Andy|date=July 1, 2013|work=CCM Magazine|accessdate=October 9, 2013|page=63|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130824001402/http://www.ccmmagazine.com/magazine/2013/jul/63.htm|archivedate=August 24, 2013|df=mdy-all}} In addition, they told Christian Music Zine that the name was because the scripture "talks about shining brightly for Christ, just like the stars in the universe."
