Did you know that the 4 spikes on the tail of the Stegosaurus had no name. Then Gary Larsen named it the "Thagomizer" in a Far Side cartoon. (After the late Thag Simmons) "Thagomizer" is now the name for this feature and is used by scientists.

A similar thing happened with a not the nine o clock news sketch with "whoop" now being the name for a group of gorillas
