Romeo Beckham, the adorable ten-year-old son of popular soccer (football) star David Beckham, seems to really look up to his dad - the youngster was spotted sporting the same tattoo (a script etching of 'Harper' on his neck) as his famous father. But no worries, the ink is fake, so fans needn't worry about bad or irresponsible parenting.  Harper is actually the name of Romeo's little sis, which makes the honorary body art that much more "aww" worthy.

Apparently Romeo's fashionista mom Victoria Beckham had no problem with the youngster wanting to give the semi-permanent tat look a try. The Beckham crew (excluding dad David, but including Romeo's siblings Harper, Cruz, and Brooklyn and mom Victoria) were out-and-about Halloween shopping in Santa Monica, CA earlier this week when the little man's fresh ink was first revealed. Take a look at some of the pics here (the tattoo is located on Romeo's left-front clavicle area).

David Beckham is known for his buff, tattoo-clad body - his own (permanent) Harper tattoo (located in the same area as Romeo's copycat) lies just above another tattoo depicting Jesus being carried by three cherubs, which he says symbolizes his three sons: "It's Jesus being carried by three cherubs and obviously the cherubs are my boys and so my thought of it is that at some point my boys are going to need to look after me and that's what they're doing in the picture. It means a lot."

Many of David's tattoos are actually connected to his family - the names of Victoria, Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz are all scripted on his body in Hindi. A six-inch angel tattoo emblazoned with the phrase "'til death do us part" also represents wife Victoria. According to David, "There's not one tattoo that I've got on me that doesn't mean something."

So what do fans think, is Romeo following in his dad's inked-out footsteps?
