456 x 456

Yesterday a couple of my friends met for the first time at an eatery- Binu Ninan Kovoor and Emil Eapen Thomas. I thought it was an incredible, almost eerie coincidence - both of them have the same number of letters in their first names, middle names AND their surnames.

I got scoffed at for making this reflexive observation. Both of them simultaneously (and independently and instantaneously) gave me the oh-yeah-so-what, something's-really-seriously-wrong-with-you look.

But I bet this happens only very rarely.
