Identical male triplets named 'A', 'B' and 'C' by parents

Meet the identical male triplets with the middle names A, B and C.

Quentin B Meloff and brothers Andrew A Meloff and Joel C Meloff, all 31, were all born within 45 seconds of each other.

Their parents, Suzanne Lyons and Rick Meloff, gave the boys the initials – in their birth order - after nurses suggested the funny idea.

They painted the triplets' toenails to tell them apart and Quentin recalls not being able to recognise himself in a photo of the three brothers until he was 12.

The brothers have always found their names have been “met with a little bit of shock” and Quentin believes it has “always been the best first date question”.

But Quentin decided to remove his middle name B from his passport after being accused of "lying" when trying to get through border control, although he maintains his middle name legally.
