This might be going too far, but I'd be tempted to give it a try if my father had the same name as me...

I suspect this could be a problem if they're both in the air at the same time. Other than that, I doubt they're the only father-son pair to do this. I suspect DL, and airlines in general, have bigger fish to fry.
