I'm sure it was a family name, like his mother's maiden name, but it still needed more consideration.

The City Administrator in Washington, DC is named Robert Bobb. Now, his parents knew what his last name would be when they named him. It's not like a woman's name that might change with marriage. What were they thinking? Bob Bobb.

Guess it could be worse. A guy's last name could be Less and his first name Richard.

I worked in a small company where we had two people who had the same (virtually) first and last names.

Mike Mikes
Robbin Robbins

Actually, among the Welsh, the double name is very common.

John Johns, William Williams, Evan Evans (the large bus company in Britain)

and, incidentally, Vivian is a man's name.
