Like I said, GF is a comedy; plenty of names are jokes. Shmipper and Smabble came from Hisch's AMA; they're every bit as ridiculous as "Llamanic" or "Blerble," and they're regarded as canon. And with the Geordi la Forge thing, he's a well-known character from a separate franchise; Llamanic and Blerble don't appear anywhere else in fiction. Besides, Hirsch only has jurisdiction of the canon of GF, not Star Trek.
