Fun fact: according to
Merriam-Webster, the word
interrobang for “a punctuation mark designed for use especially at the end of an exclamatory rhetorical question,” was coined a half-century ago.
Despite all the ensuing exclamatory rhetoric still awaiting proper punctuation, the mark has yet to catch on.

I do remember reading about its invention in a Readers' Digest snippet at the end of another sometime in the mid-70's but I don't remember them giving it a name. It also has no Unicode equivalent, so can I put one here(interrobang) No. Damn.
