The reality TV star and influencer was asked whether her daughter Bambi has a middle name.

Finding the ideal name for your child is no easy task, especially when it involves taking into account the thoughts of your partner, plus a name is for life.

Not to mention all the forums, baby name lists and celebrities as sources of inspo. A few parents have even admitted to being reduced to tears daily after choosing the 'wrong' name.

Molly-Mae Hague and her boyfriend Tommy Fury, both 24, who are parents to five-month-old Bambi also faced a tough decision when trying to come up with a middle name for their daughter.

As fans of the influencer and reality TV star are aware, the tot's first name became quite a hot topic after it was revealed and even led to some backlash.

As it turns out, Bambi almost had a slightly different moniker, which the former PrettyLittleThing creative director opened up about in a recent vlog, where she also confirmed she's leaving her role at the fashion company to focus on Bambi.

Molly-Mae spoke to fans from the comfort of her car in her latest YouTube vlog, where she answered questions about her life.

When one fan asked asked about Bambi’s middle name, Molly-Mae said: “This is a good one and I've never answered it before." she said.

"Bambi doesn't have a middle name.

"Her name's literally just Bambi Fury which is so weird because I was so certain she would have a middle name.

"I was adamant, but we just couldn't decide on one. And we kept coming up with random middle names, like for a while she was going to be Bambi Winter."

"And now I'm like 'What the hell?' Where did we pluck that, out from the sky?," the former Love Island star joked. "It wasn't anything sentimental to us it doesn't make any sense.

"And then as well we toyed with the idea of Esme because my Nanna is called Esme, which I actually love, but in the end we were doing her birth certificate and we didn't put one down."

She also addressed the negative comments people posted on social media and shared her belief that people are slowly starting to like the name Bambi.

The new mum said: "I also feel like people might be coming round to her name now.

“At the start it caused quite a lot of controversy. Not many people liked it, which doesn't matter at all because Tommy and I absolutely love it."
