Urban Legend V's the Truth?
However according to his mum, Victoria, he was not named Brooklyn because he was conceived there - or at least that's not what she wrote in her autobiography, Learning to Fly.
"It was when we were in Marbella that we came up with the name Brooklyn. We already knew he was a boy and so I knew he could end up a footballer, so it had to be a name that was a bit blokey. I had always liked the name Brooke and then we suddenly thought about Brooklyn. I’d always like it as a place – it’s very multi-cultural, very grounded. And it was only afterwards that I realized how appropriate it was because it was in New York that I found out I was pregnant and where David came after the World Cup."
So maybe Brooklyn is following in the footsteps of his commercially and media savvy parents and enjoying his new tattoo whilst having the last on this one. Meanwhile he's busy promoting his new photography book, 'What I See'.
