Why do prominent Republicans give their children goofy names? Flame me if you want

25. I can hardly believe this thread has grown this far. .......

.....without someone championing accolades to Frank Zappa. In 1967, before he had any children to name, he came up with Suzie Creamcheese as the protagonist of his first album (viz Mothers Of Invention, Freakout album). But, some years later when his own children entered this world, he came up with the following names for them: Moon Unit, Dweezil (Dweezil Zappa - can you say it ten times without completely losing it?, Ahmet Emuukha Rodan, and Diva Thin Muffin Pigeen.

"Just as much as you wonder
About me being here with you
That's just how much I marvel
At the corny thing you do
You told your mom
Your stoked on Tom
Then you went sleezing in a cheezy bar
Plastic boots and plastic hat
And you think you know where it's at"
(written before Paris Hilton could possibly have been conceived)

"I remember do do
I remember do do
They had a swimming pool
And they thought it couldn't happen here"

But I kinda think that Frank Zappa was a little to the left of most Republicans.
