If I saw that someone was called ?, I'd pronounce it: Huh?

She's named a question mark?

He was actually Question Mark and it was a stage name.
His real name was Rudy. It's illegal to have a symbol as a name--so no, "?" can't be considered a name in the USA. Neither can the symbol Prince used to go by.

Ah. Well, that makes a lot more sense.

Oh, and...
I've found their website and it's http://96tears.net/.
Turns out that she's right and it technically is ?, at least sometimes. They go back and forth in how they write it, actually, as can be seen here: http://www.96tears.net/q.html
The Mysterians' website is pretty much useless, unfortunately, if information's what the girl is looking for. I knew what I posted off the top of my head, and that came from the book Bubblegum Music is the Naked Truth.
Here's Wikipedia's take on it all: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%3F_%26_the_Mysterians

? was on a VH1 show the other day... they wrote it out as "Question Mark." They also said he had legally changed his name, so it's probably spelled out.
