What was the name of John Lennon's band when he asked Paul to join him?

No rest for the wicked, because this question is not as easy as it seems.
The quick answer to this is The Quarrymen (named after John's school), but I'm not sure about the historical accuracy of this answer. I think John and Paul played together as the Nurk Twins the year before John formed The Quarrymen. Once The Quarrymen had been formed, John invited Paul to re-join him in the new band, and it was at this time that Paul brought George along.
My wife sent me a great article yesterday on Pete Best, and I realized as I read that article how very little I knew about the early days.
