Eve Arnold, a photographer, died...

...at age 99. Born Eve Cohen, she married a man in 1948 named Arnold Arnold.

Now what in the heck were his parents thinking?

Arnold Arnold was born Arnold Schmitz in Germany. When he achieved success as a graphic designer in the US, signing his work "Arnold", people addressed him as "Mr Arnold". He wanted to lose the German surname and so changed it to Arnold (admittedly not great but memorable). I knew him extremely well - and he just died too.
