How did Righteous brothers get their name?

The Righteous Brothers, a musical duo consisting of Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield, got their name from a nickname given to them by a friend. The friend referred to them as "righteous brothers" because of their soulful music and camaraderie. The name stuck, and they adopted it as their official title, which became iconic in the realm of pop and soul music during the 1960s. Their blend of rock and roll with soulful ballads helped define their legacy.
