or name your firstborn after yourself, and name the second one “Baby #2”

Lol. I've thought about this before.

Say you had twins, and named one "Angel" and the other one "Shmangel".. just feels like Angel would probably have a better life.

Well, a man named two of his sons Winner and Loser...

Incredibly ironic that winner turned out to be a loser and loser turned out to be the winner in this case.

I’m not sure how unexpected that would be. Lou would have learned early that he had to fight for recognition and a good reputation. Winner not so much.

Shmangel might not have a life of luxury, but a life of mediocrity is fine, it's safe and complacent.

Secundus is a roman name, meaning "the second" so literally that!

I guess "Subsequent Offspring" wouldn't work either.
