Impossible to prove but also sounds like it has a ring of truth. I volunteer with an old Pom, came here at 15, he's 70 now, and thought almost all girls in Australia were named Sheila.

That ones true.

I think he called his son dweezil, so I think she got the better end of it.

Dweezil's birth name was Ian Donald Calvin Euclid Zappa.

The hospital wouldn't allow his parents to register the name 'Dweezil'.

His name was legally changed to Dweezil Zappa when he was about five years old.

Moon Unit was indeed named Moon Unit at birth.
