Seeing as there is very clear paternal symbolism throughout, and even internal dialog of the ~~minster~~ monster referring to the "doctor" as his father, I think it's pretty reasonable to assume the ~~minster~~ monster took the same surname.

I read that as minister and not monster and was very confused. I thought I must have missed a reference to a different movie.

Ah, I made the same mistake!

I suspect it was when he wrote "minister" that led me to read it as "minister", but it really could have been anything. I'm kind of tired, so that might have been it.
