Best Answer

In Lewis Carroll's book, Through the Looking Glass, the brothers are referred to as 'Tweedledum and Tweedledee', so Tweedledum comes first.

But (contrariwise) in Disney's 1951 animated film, they are called 'Tweedledee and Tweedledum', so Tweedledee comes first.

Is there a quote in Alice in Wonderland saying something is so?

"If it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn't, it ain't."Tweedledee, Through the Looking-GlassWhen Alice first meets Tweedledum and Tweedledee in Through the Looking Glass, she is reminded of a poem about them, which she can barely resist saying out loud. Tweedledum seems to read her mind:`I know what you're thinking about,' said Tweedledum: `but it isn't so, nohow.'`Contrariwise,' continued Tweedledee, `if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn't, it ain't. That's logic.'`I was thinking,' Alice said very politely, `which is the best way out of this wood: it's getting so dark. Would you tell me, please?'But the little men only looked at each other and grinned.
