We’ve had Brangelina (needs no explanation), Bennifer (Ben Affleck & J-Lo - although this term could still apply to Ben and his wife Jennifer Garner) and TomKat (Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes – a union no more).
Then the word was graced with Jedward (John and Edwards Grimes are barely known by their actual names).
And this week we’ve said hello (and bye) to Kimye on Irish shores (that’s Kim Kardahsian and Kanye West for anyone who’s been out of the country this week).
What about...
Bill and Hillary = Billary
Beyonce and Jay Z = Jayonce
Mario and Luigi = Muigi
Sonny and Cher = Sher
Batman and Robin = Batbin
We could go on and on...
How far is the name-mashing going to go?
