"Bro"
Co-owned with Emily Holmes
​

(Nicknames: BroCode, Bro-Bro, Broseph, Brosefina, Brotato, Brofessor-X, A-Bro-ham Lincoln, Bil-Bro Baggins)


Where did Bro's name come from?
Keeping with the pop culture theme of his mom's name, Bro was name after Barney Stinson's (from How I Met Your Mother) famous catchphrase:
"Legen-wait for it-dary! LEGENDARY!"
And his call name is short for Barney's guideline for bros to live by, The BroCode.
