Gave birth to her 1st child at age 37, a daughter Mathilda Plum Doucette on December 21, 2004. Child's father is her now ex-husband, Paul Doucette.
Her name is parodied in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999). Dr. Evil's moon base is divided into two units, "Moon Unit Alpha" and "Moon Unit Zappa".

In 2004, Moon Unit was voted the most bizarrely named celebrity offspring off all time in a poll for Sky TV.
Got her middle name from the idea that her birth made parents Frank Zappa and Gail Zappa a "family unit".

Her vocals on "Valley Girl" were unplanned. Frank Zappa was working on the track and needed a female voice to do the lines, so he went upstairs and asked her if she wanted to do it. Moon had been missing her dad, who'd been busy recording, and asked to "book a session" just for the chance to spend time with him.
