3..g6 and 4...Bg7 look like a better bet to me

you can try by your black bishop to capture knight on f6 so if knight move you can capture queen.

This is a really bad attemp at cave man chess for white.   It's going to boomerang and turn out badly for white unless black plays passively..

This is how Kasparov played against 2.Qh5:

I used to play the Sosis all the time as a kid, but was warned repeatedly about getting your queen out too early.  Any loss that I had using this opening was blamed on that, but as long as you follow good tactical play, there's nothing really wrong with it.  As the Kasparov v. Harrelson game shows, you're not always going to lose the queen by getting her out early.

Bill Wall's list of ECO codes gives the following as alternate names:

C20 Wayward Queen; Danvers; Parnham 1.e4 e5 2.Qh5 

C20 Mellon Gambit 1.e4 e5 2.Qh5 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nh6 4.d3 g6 5.Qf3 f6 6.Ne2 d5 

C20 Kiddie Countergambit 1.e4 e5 2.Qh5 Nf6

Niven42

The Wiki has a nice article on it that gives it a little more justice than what I can:

The "Parham Attack" is a name given to this opening because it was favored by Bernard Parham, who used it to some success from the 1960's til the present day.
