Orangutan name

I have an uncle whose name is Siew Meng, said in Chinese it's "Siao (Xiao) Ming". Yesterday our relatives were talking about Ah Meng, the orangutan who had died the day before.

Aunt: 听说他们要把她的孩子的名字换成“小明”。[Heard that they are going to change one of her child to "Xiao Ming" (to name after her.)]
Aunt: 。。。 。。。
Aunt: （指着小明姑丈〕哈哈！ 小明！那不是小明！(*pointing to my uncle* haha! Xiao Ming! Isn't that Xiao Ming!)

Anyway, the zoo will name the next newborn orangutan as Ah Meng Junior, not exactly change one of the current son's or daughter's name to that.
