Can two people have the same model number and version

My AirPods were recently stolen by one of my siblings, I wanted to find out before jumping to conclusions and I checked everywhere. Recently my brother got airpods after I lost mine so I accused him of it, i was wrong. Now to the real problem, my younger brother has a new airpod case and i connected my phone to it after i opened it noticing the similarities in my airpods, he changed the name but the serial number and the version are alike ill show receipts too are these my AirPods? Please someone help me!

Everyone in the world who owns the same generation of AirPods has the same model number and version.


The only way to identify your AirPods would be by the serial inside the case.
