         Common Note Names:                                        Weird Spellings:
          This is what the note is                                 Just like you could be called “Son of Sue” or
            usually called.  Some                                  “Daughter of Frank,” some notes can be called some
        notes can have more than                                   pretty strange things.  These notes are shown with
          one name, just like you                                  filled in noteheads to show that they are unusual, but
        can be called by your first                                possible, names.  You can pretty much ignore these
