Speaking of strange names to newborns, can someone explain why the newborn son of Victoria Beckham is called Romeo? I mean, the footballer and his Spicegirl are not big Shakespeare fans, are they? According to newspaper reports, Beckham said to reporters, : "Victoria's fine, we've had a little boy. He is called Romeo - it is just a name we both love".
Hardly a good explanation. Was he conceived on a balcony? on the backseat of the AlfaRomeo model? Does he look like Leonardo Dicaprio? Like John Gielgud?
Or is it in honour of designer Romeo Gigli?
