Nanny changes her name to Mary Poppins

[Still Waters 36,283]

A British nanny has legally changed her name to Mary Poppins after being likened to the fictional character by clients.

Mary Poppins, formerly Emma Davenport, has been a nanny since she was 18 years old and has often dressed like the character as part of her job.

Now she’s taken her “uncanny resemblance” one step further by officially changing her name by deed poll.

But can she fly using her umbrella and sing?  Is her husband changing 'is name to Bert?

If she doesn't have the carpet bag and vocal umbrella that flies (as paperdyer pointed out) she ain't the real deal.

So that's all you need? I'm going to change my name to Tesla and become a super-genius.

I just realized, Mary Poppins was a carpetbagger!
