Man tears up after learning great-grandson is named after him

A man couldn't help but tear up when he learned his great-grandson had been named after him.

Reagin Conley and his family recorded Conley's grandfather meeting his great-grandson at a hospital in Gallipolis, Ohio, and seeing the newborn's name tag for the first time.

Both Conley's son and his grandfather are named Teddy.

In the video, when the elder Teddy notices the baby's name, he looks surprised and quickly grows emotional.

"You're kidding me. You're kidding me," he says repeatedly before giving his grandson a heartfelt embrace.
