The original original stooges it was Shemp and Moe. But the original stooges from their famous days was Curly and Moe. As I remember it was originally Shemp, Moe and Larry in a vuadville routine and at some point Shemp was replaced by Curly. After which the hit quite big with their short movies. Then after Curly passed away they brought Shemp back and redid several of their more famous shorts with Shemp instead of Curly (though reusing the same footage). It always seemed a real shame that they never got a full length movie.

Moe, Curly & Shemp
Moe and Curly.
I'm probably wrong, but I thought they were all related in some fashion. Cousins or second-cousins?
