Grin Actually Bamboozler itself would be a fine ringing name... Balonz’s brother?

workshyfop · 26/05/2019 18:20

Yes Empress. Many an hour wasted playing Bamboozle when I was a student.

LoveTheLakes40 · 26/05/2019 18:19

Stripper or porn star.

Pinkvoid · 26/05/2019 18:15

Haha no, it’s a stripper name.

EmpressLesbianInChair · 26/05/2019 18:14

Can't we channel Bamber Gascoigne, who as far as I know has harmed no-one, rather than the egregious Jeremy?

I don’t suppose anyone remembers Bamber Boozler?

anitagreen · 26/05/2019 18:07

I know a porn star her name is Bambi Blacks wouldn't do ittt

MikeUniformMike · 26/05/2019 18:04

It could be a nn for Amber.
OP, have you considered Cinderella or Minnie Mouse?

mabelmylove · 26/05/2019 17:52

I know a Barbara nn Bambi

Proseccofuelled · 26/05/2019 17:51

@Hairwizard I laughed out loud at your comment

lucymegan · 26/05/2019 17:46

Ahh I love it x

If the child was a girl, Barbara, a fine, centuries-old name could be a root for Bambi. A Barbara I know was nn Bubbles.

Watch the film to see what happened to Bambi's mother.

holdupwaitamin · 26/05/2019 13:17

Please no...

LazyLizzy · 26/05/2019 10:00

Granny Jeremy Bamber murdered his family, that's where the Bambi association comes from.

So Bamber nn Bambi would be even worse.

AuntieStella · 26/05/2019 07:02

The Disney Bambi is male

So Bamber with that as nn might work.

GrannyHaddock · 26/05/2019 06:58

You could only get away with it by naming a boy baby Bamber and keeping Bambi for a nn.

Frittata · 26/05/2019 00:44

Dear, deer, deer....

"The name Bambi"

It's not a name Confused

heartyrebel · 25/05/2019 23:19

I joking called my bump this through my pregnancy to wind up my friends. They all said it was a stripper name.

Joeybee · 25/05/2019 23:18

Too cutesy and not a name that could grow with a person. No-one is going to take a Bambi seriously as an adult.

Tana433 · 25/05/2019 22:32

Dont like it, sorry. My dd is threatening to call her 1st baby Simba whether its a boy or a girl. Thank god shes only 12 at the moment!

Lilybeth91 · 25/05/2019 22:26

You can’t name a baby Bambi

FromDespairToHere · 25/05/2019 22:25

Definitely a stripper name.

Casmama · 25/05/2019 22:21

Please put this mad idea down to pregnancy hormones and don't even consider it

Hairwizard · 25/05/2019 22:16

No. Just. No. Fuck no. Nope.
