    Nicole was asked by ET whether Benji consulted his brother about the bird name thing and said, "I didn't ask, but I really don't think they did. I think it's just a twin thing. Who knows?"

    Joel was asked the same thing and said, "It was a surprise to all of us. We're all very happy, though."
