This is old news, having occured last January, but I just ran across the story today. It made me laugh. Sorry if it has been posted before, but nothing came up a site search.
The sheer diversity of what makes people happy continually amazes me. Personally, I would have gone for “Zi ppittybop-Bop-Bop”, but that’s just me.
He’s in deep Doo-Doo now, diggity.
From the OP’s link:
For what it’s worth, I think Beezow Doo-Doo Zopittybop-Bop-Bop is an improvement.
And, pretty clearly, he’s really trying to get attention. This isn’t the first time for him:
Google his name and you’ll get plenty of hits from his two previous arrests, one of them a year ago. His name made lots of news shows back then.
Engelbert Humperdinck and Moxie Crimefighter Jillette unhappy about this blatant attention-grabbing.
I opened this thread thinking, “what the heck did they arrest Bill Cosby for?!”
Beezow’s in the hoosegow.

That is the most ridiculous name I’ve ever heard.

I thought this was going to be about Cosby, too.
I’ve been sitting here at my desk chuckling about that name for several minutes now. I keep wanting to pronounce it “Zoppity-Bop-Bop”, carelessly skipping over the first “bop”. I bet he gets that a lot.

Well, yeah, but the first “bop” is silent.
When I was a kid I remember reading about a kid whose parents had named him:
True-will-laughing-life-bucky-boomer-manifest-destiny.
Do you suppose the “ow” in Beezow sounds like the “ow” in window or in cow?

“Pleased to meet you, Zoppity-Bop-Bop.”
"Ahem, it’s “Zoppitybop-Bop-Bop. Why does everyone always get it wrong?”
It’s hard to beat the classic If-Christ-had- not-died-for-thee-thou-hadst-been-damned Barebones.

How about the guy who changed his name to Heywood Jablome?
Boy, that name sucks.
And I can’t help notice a certain… Mansonesque… quality to our boy Bezow.

Be glad we got as close as we did. I was going to say, “Zippity doo dah!”

His face does kinda fit the new name, doesn’t it?

He probably didn’t pick Zippity Doo Dah because he didn’t want the added pressure of always having a wonderful day.
