Dweezil Zappa

Dweezil Zappa (born September 5, 1969, in Los Angeles) is a heavy metal guitarist. He's the son of Frank Zappa and the second of four siblings. His father died on December 4, 1993, due to prostate cancer. Dweezil's older sister is Moon Unit, and his two younger siblings are Ahmet and Diva Zappa. Dweezil's registered birth name was Ian Donald Calvin Euclid Zappa, although this only occurred because the hospital at which he was born refused to register him under the name Dweezil. His father instead used the first names of his bandmates to form a name. He was always called Dweezil (pronounced "da weasel") by his family, though, and later had an official name change.
