Actually, part of the reason my brother's story struck me as so funny is that he (my brother) and I are twins. I am also the proud father of twin sons (who look remarkably similar to my brother and I at the same age).
It's remarkable how cruel some parents can be when naming their twins. Also funny, as long as you aren't the butt of the joke.
The twins I spoke of were named after their father, Leon. Its bad enough when you meet twins for the first time and can't keep them straight. But when they have virtually the same name, and in their 50's still look exactly alike (hair and all!) it can really screw ya up.
