Well your bro would be the best judge did you tell him it was for his partner? Some people don't like stuff like thiz even if it is in their field. My DH is a lawyer and absolutely hates anything cute, lawyer knicknacks, jokes, framed pictilures or cartoons, xmas ornaments. I finally had to be flat out honest with my Mom who was buying all this supposedly cute stuff for him every year which he actually hated.
