Stunned

I have a TV program in the background and an elderly woman is talking about her two sons:
Ateo and Cristiano. Respectively the italian words for "atheist" and "christian".

And I'm like, what now? ..Matchy names for siblings don't sound so bad now, do they?

I hope that you misheard and the first son is named Matteo...

Oh no no, the name was repeated several times, plus Ateo and Matteo would be pronounced differently (AH-teh-oh and Maht-TEH-oh).

Meh. Little weird to put them together, but the names really aren't all that bad, and I never would've thought anything about them before.

I think Ateo is kind of awesome...too bad it means 'atheist' ;)

Actually, I think that's pretty awesome. But that's coming from the one who thinks Jesus and Judas would be excellent names for twins.
