Victoria and David, Be Careful What You Wish For

There’s obsessive, and then there’s…well…eww.

I believe this couple crosses the line.

Meet the new David and Victoria Beckham. They’ve had these names since 2003. Judging by the picture, that’s a long time post-birth.

Seems this particular David and Victoria changed their names to match those of their idols. And now they’re facing the consequences. They started out as Gerard and Elizabeth Donnely, but that just didn’t do it. So in 2003 they changed their names to David and Victoria Beckham.

The result?

All the ground windows at the front of their Tullymore Gardens home – which proudly displays a plaque with the house name Beckingham Palace – have been smashed and the couple are so worried about further attacks that they said they will not be removing the wooden boarding that is currently securing the house.

Surprised at the carnage? Yeah, me neither.

You kind of have to feel for them, though. Seriously, if you’re considering changing your name, go for something less controversial. Like Napolean and Josephine. Or Louis XVI and Marie Antionette.

Or Adolph and Eva.

Good luck David and Victoria II.
