The story that I heard was that Mick and Keef were on a cruise ship and were walking around in typical Stones fashion with some fancy duds on and a couple on the boat wanted the boys to "give them a glimmer" as to why they looked that way (obviously not knowing who they were)
And so they named themselves the Glimmer twins when they started producing their onw material.
That's the story I heard -- no idea if it is true or not.
