No I think you are right on that. The Ramones all took the same surname but werent brothers so that fits.
I know most will already know this fact about The Ramones but here's an interesting fact about how they chose their name that some may not know.
The Ramones always felt like more than just a band. They represented a way of life and presented a brotherhood that anybody could be a part of, accepting all that joined the ride. Their name played a key part in their appeal, and the Ramones was the perfect summarization of America’s most rebellious, unconventional family.
As band names go, few are better than the Ramones, and like lots of the best things in the world, it comes from The Beatles. Johnny Ramone once revealed: “Paul would check into a hotel using the name Paul Ramon. Dee Dee was a big fan, so he changed his name to Dee Dee Ramone. We decided to call the band the Ramones.”
This glorious story that seems too good to be true has been backed up also by Marky Ramone, who recalled: “The Beatles used to tour… before they were The Beatles, they were called The Silver Beatles, and all the girls running after them, even the guys. So the next thing you know, Paul McCartney would sign into a hotel room as Paul Ramone. [Bassist] Dee Dee looked at this and said, ‘Let’s call ourselves The Ramones.'”
