Paris Hilton is a descendant of Zsa Zsa Gabor

Mozart's full name was Joannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart

The Tom Cruise/Katie Holmes phenomena "TomKat" has its own Wikipedia entry *sigh*

Uranus as 27 named moons: Ariel, Umbriel, Belinda, Titania, Oberon, Puck, Miranda, Caliban, Sycorax, Prospero, Setebos, Stephano, Trinculo, Francisco, Ferdinand, Cordelia, Ophelia, Bianca, Cressida, Desdemona, Juliet, Mab, Portia, Rosalind, Margaret, Perdita, and Cupid

Colugos are also known as cobegos or flying lemurs (misleadingly, since they are not lemurs and cannot fly).
