The band has been marketed with three different names on different releases, '''g//z/r''' in 1995, '''geezer''' in 1997, and '''GZR''' in 2005. Most fans refer to the band as "geezer", although Butler himself refers to the band name as "gee-zed-ar". This incarnation of the band is not to be confused with Butler's previous attempt in 1985 to form a solo band, then known as the [[Geezer Butler Band]] β the two outfits are largely unrelated.
