Wait, I think I’m interpreting this wrong.
Since his sister’s name is Rose because their mother loves roses, that makes me think that the brother’s name is “your mother” because his mother loves herself. Maybe it’s just me but the tone of the joke feels like it’s referring to the narcissistic kind of self-love rather than the healthy kind. So what I hear is basically that his mother is a narcissist. That hardly sounds wholesome to me, which is why I think I’m misinterpreting it. Can anyone explain?
You’re overthinking the joke, the father named his son ‘Your mother’ because the father loves the son’s mother, who is the father’s wife (presumably) It is hinting the passion the father has for his wife, kinda cute
