How did you create the shortcuts? "Add to desktop" through Tools in Chrome?
Presumably Chrome is responsible but I can't find a solution - Google came up with someone asking the same question in 2012 but no answer.
You might want to consider using bookmarks in the browser rather than desktop shortcuts. Or maybe try recreating the shortcuts using incognito windows.
I wonder if it's taking the new icon name from the title in the tab in Chrome? Certainly a possibility from the description for Google and eBay. Does your bank website by any chance display your bank username in the title bar?
