See, now Sun Penis is a respectable name. Far better than Moon Unit.

the worst thing is: Oct 3, 2013; by FactsAreUseless

He named his other kid Dweezil

quote:

When Dweezil was born, Gail decided to have 'natural childbirth.' At that time, the only hospital in Los Angeles that would allow this process to occur with a Dad in the delivery room was Hollywood
Presbyterian Hospital.

When it was time for the Big Delivery, we experienced a slight delay -- we had to fill out a mass of papers before they'd let us in, riddled with irrelevant questions like: "What religion are you?"

Gail looked at me and said, "What do we put?" I said, "Musician."

That was the first thing that upset the admitting nurse. The second thing to spoil her afternoon was when she asked: "What are you going to name the child?" Gail said, "Dweezil."

Gail's got a funny-looking little toe which had been the source of family amusement so often that it had acquired a 'technical name': it wasn't really a toe -- it was a "Dweezil." I thought then, and continue to think today, that Dweezil is a nice name. gently caress the nurse if she didn't like it.

The nurse pleaded and pleaded with us not to name the child Dweezil. Labor pains and all, she was going to make Gail stand there unless we gave her another name to put on the form. I couldn't see letting Gail suffer just to argue the point, so I rattled off an assortment of first names of guys we knew: IAN (Underwood) DONALD (Van Vliet) CALVIN (Schenkel) EUCLID (James "Motorhead" Sherwood). As a result, Dweezil's original birth certificate name was Ian Donald Calvin Euclid Zappa. The nurse thought that was okay.

In spite of this harrowing experience, we always called him Dweezil. He was five years old when he discovered the real names on his birth certificate.

(I was in my mid-twenties when I found out! Up until the time I had to get a passport for the first European tour, I thought my name was Francis -- a name I had always hated. In order to get the passport, I had to present my birth certificate -- a mysterious document I had never seen before. My mother mailed it to me from California, and on it, much to my delight, was a name OTHER THAN FRANCIS -- well, it wasn't that good -- "Frank" isn't much of a bargain -- but I had thought for years, even printing it on album covers, that I was Francis Vincent Zappa Junior. How could I be such a fool?)

Dweezil was very upset, and demanded that steps be taken to rectify this tragedy. We hired an attorney and had his name legally changed to Dweezil.

Actually he had 4 kids

I'm pretty sure Moon Unit legally changed her name to just Moon.

My favorite Zappa album is apostrophe.

wikipedia Moon Zappa says: Zappa was born in New York City, the eldest child of Gail Zappa and musician Frank Zappa.[1] She has three younger siblings, Dweezil, Ahmet, and Diva Muffin.

No mention of name changing.

Back when my sister and I were kids, I mentioned Moon Unit Zappa to her, and she thought it was funny.

In Super Mario World, there was a glitch where when you stomped enough caterpillars, you would start getting gigantic amounts of points and lives, and the score would show weird graphics. My sister started calling these, and then all of the glitchy graphics of a video game, "Moon Units", which I think is a pretty good term.
