Thanks guys.

The "BIN" name drew its inspiration from wine aging process and how they were stored. The bin identified the batch of wine and it was numbered and labeled with a wax stamp. I rememver reading this on,anothet site I dont remember where though.

Yea a longggg time ago before the 2's dropped som Jordan rep was on tv and said they got the name from basically just going back to old designs that didnt make it, or figuratively speaking, scrapped - thrown in a trash BIN. No fancy acronym here. 
EDIT: I was beat to it... oh well, didnt read first time around

I guess that everyone's having too much fun making up meanings to actually acknowledge that the real answer's been posted
