where in heaven's name

Used to ask a question about the location, direction, or origin of someone or something while emphasizing one's shock, anger, disgust, incredulity, etc. Just where in heaven's name are you going at this hour? It's nearly midnight! A: "Dr. Murakami, come have a look at this strange egg we discovered." B: "Where in heaven's name could this have come from? I've never seen anything like this before in my life!" The car needs a new engine, but where in heaven's name are we going to get the money for it?
