Grin this is a joke yes??

Isn't Bambi a boy in the film? Cute for an animal but laughable for a dc.

PoldarksBreeches · 27/11/2016 18:56

Stripper name

Hobbitch · 27/11/2016 18:57

It also makes me think of a stripper or porn star.

DOTLEYtheONEeyedDINO · 27/11/2016 18:57

No.

febmum2b · 27/11/2016 18:58

I actually considered this for my daughter 2 years ago... google the thread. I got so much abuse ...I still love it! x

I think it is cuteSmile

KlingybunFistelvase · 27/11/2016 19:14

I don't like it. It is a name though isn't it? I've definitely heard of it for a girl before, so not that shocking.

PaperdollCartoon · 27/11/2016 19:16

I'm all for unusual names, but what if she wants to be a lawyer or a doctor etc... she won't thank you for giving her such a cutesy name then. You're not just having a baby, you're having a person who will one day grow up and want to be taken seriously as an adult.

I prefer Dumbo.

If you mean the Aussie, Northwood-Blythe, her real name is Stephanie.

Lovely nn, but not so for the full name

BikeRunSki · 27/11/2016 19:20

I expect she'd be a little dear....

I might work as a nickname of some sort. But I'd hate it as a given name.

titsbumfannythelot · 27/11/2016 19:35

No. it might seem cute but the child will hate it in years to come.

Nanasueathome · 27/11/2016 19:36

Oh deer

HeyRoly · 27/11/2016 19:37

No.

SovietKitsch · 27/11/2016 19:37

I know someone who has just used this as a middle name OP do I know you?!

Ditsy4 · 27/11/2016 19:40

She would get teased at school.
It is awful.

DearMrDilkington · 27/11/2016 19:44

For a first name or middle?

sonlypuppyfat · 27/11/2016 19:46

Have a word with yourself

DollyPlastic · 27/11/2016 19:47

Please do it. Please. Halo

Soubriquet · 27/11/2016 19:48

Tell her to stay out of the woods come hunting season

BadToTheBone · 27/11/2016 19:54

Awful

Shesinfashion · 27/11/2016 19:55

Come off it! Really??

maggiethemagpie · 27/11/2016 19:57
