Most people know The Misfits got their band name from the last film Marilyn Monroe ever appeared in, but the stage names surrounding many Misfits members still remains a mystery. Jerry Only once explained after his surname was misspelled on the band's first single, Cough/Cool, he insisted that in the future he be credited as "Jerry, only Jerry." So Jerry Only quickly became his pseudonym, which he would continue to use for the rest of his career. Unfortunately, Glenn Danzig is not so quick to elaborate on his adopted name. During a 2005 interview, when asked about his stage name Glenn responded "It´s a personal reason and has to do with my family. Usually my family is off limits. I don´t give a fuck about who you are. I keep my family out of it. If you understand that and respect that – great; if not I could give two fucks. So how is that?"
