A man and a woman marry after a short courtship and all is well for a time.Eventually they are blessed with a child.The woman's time comes and she is taken into the operating room,she calls the husband over.
"Honey,there's something i really need to tell you.There is a very old tradition in our families that the oldest living male gets to name any new children born to anyone in the family.
That means my brother must name our first child.I know this comes as a shock,but i couldn't tell you earlier because i didn't want to upset you."
"But,but..."sputters the husband"I know your brother.Wasn't he injured in the war?There's no question that he'll screw this up!"
"I'm sorry"says the wife,"but thats the way it has to be"
"All right"he sighs"what did he name our daughter?"
"Denise"says the mother,quietly,and the husband sighs in relief
Just then the doctor informs them that they are about to be parents of male and female twins.
"Oh,no"sighs the woman
"What is it love?"
"The boy's name is Denephew"
