Huh? That's the first time I hear about that. Mind sharing your sources?

I learned it a the Jewish school, during a lesson about the names of the people in the Bible and in the Talmud. Since I've always liked names, I remembered it.
This is probably an apologetic explanation for such a "selfish" name consisting of two occurences of the word "mine/to me". One of them is attributed to God. It seems pretty typical of talmudic logic.
