Nono, Gambino was just the first Italian last name that spring to mind. But for the title to make sense you would say Super *lastname* brothers. Not the first name of the first brother. Like saying Tom Bros instead of Smothers Brothers or Jake Brothers instead of Blues Brothers
I thought that their names were Mario Mario and Luigi Mario. This is hard not to read as a joke, but I'm serious. I really thought that.
Considering that's exactly how they explained it in the live action movie I don't see why it'd be unusual to think that.

I'd heard that too (not having seen the movie), but I've also heard that's not true as well.

Granted I kinda like it because of how stupid it is; but good lord is that a weird, stupid and redundant name.
Aggressors of Dark Kombat

Wow, I've never even heard of that one. That's awesomely bad. What system was that for?

Believe it or not, it's a fighting game on the Neo-Geo / MVS, made by developer ADK, which explains the horribly bad name - (Aggressors of Dark Kombat, get it?)
Not bad - think Power Moves/Deadly Moves, but better graphics and with weapons and interactive environments. Also, Fuuma from fellow ADK title World Heroes is a playable character, and if you ever played NeoGeo Battle Coliseum and wondered what game Kisarah came from, it's this one!

Good game - terrible name..

Beatmania IIDX19 Lincle

What the fuck is a "Lincle"? The fans still don't know. The logo also looks like a detergent:
