  No one has said that because it wouldn’t be correct. They are (both) named Trevor.

    They’re named Trevors

    It’s clearly plural

      That’s not how it works or each would be named Trevors.

        What? If you saw them walking down the street together would you say

        There go the Trevors

        Or there go the Trevor?

      Why would either one of them be named the plural of Trevor?
