Sweet! Molly-Mae Hague has revealed she’s named her baby daughter Bambi, as she posted a sweet snap of her newborn nestled in her cot

In a previous YouTube Q&A she said: ‘It’s not made up, it’s totally not made up, I can’t explain it. It’s just not a name that’s ever been used before. It’s very very different and rare and you’re either going to love it or hate it.

‘I’ve had the name picked out since I was a baby girl myself. It’s always been a dream baby girl name and luckily when I met Tommy and I told him the name I’ve always dreamt of using, he absolutely loved it too.

‘It’s a really really unusual and a different name, I do not know anybody else with the name. I’ve not seen any other girls with the name before, it’s that different.’

It comes after Molly-Mae’s fans claimed they’d figured out the name of her baby girl, with some users’ guesses now proving to be right.

Some eagle-eyed followers had done some digging on Instagram and believed they had uncovered an account registered under what could have been the newborn’s identity.

They also thought the name is a nod to her love for her toy elephant Ellie Belly which goes everywhere with her.

One wrote: ‘I know the name. Somebody I know who is close to Mollys managers family or something knows the name. It’s Bambi.’ 

A second added: ‘It’s Bambi apparently’.
