MycatsaPirate · 01/05/2017 17:55

Unless you are a deer, then no.

MrsBungle · 01/05/2017 17:56

FurryTurnip · 01/05/2017 17:56

Eeek. No, sorry.

picklemepopcorn · 01/05/2017 17:56

Not until Disney is forgotten and strippers have changed their style.

2014newme · 01/05/2017 17:57

No deer.

YellowLily17 · 01/05/2017 17:59

It means "baby girl" in Italian.

No.

Makes me think of the Sex Pistols.

As a middle name, I think someone could withstand it.

It's not to my taste, but if it has a particular significance for you than go for it. At least the story of why it is meaningful to you will mitigate it a bit.

picklemepopcorn · 01/05/2017 18:02

Bambini, maybe.

AuntieStella · 01/05/2017 18:02

It means "baby girl" in Italian.

I thought that was Bambina? And most of her life, she won't be a little girl. How about Bella?

WorryLessCherishEveryDay · 01/05/2017 18:04

I think its cute.

Darkblueskies · 01/05/2017 18:05

Anyway bambi was a boy!

peeriebear · 01/05/2017 18:06

Faline!

HappyLollipop · 01/05/2017 18:07

It's cute but not a suitable name to actually put anywhere on a birth certificate! Can't you just use bambi as a nickname while she's growing up instead? My parents had funny nicknames me and my sibling that have no bearing on our actual names I was Gigi and my sister Chooks Grin

YellowLily17 · 01/05/2017 18:10

Yes, but it's a girls name.

villainousbroodmare · 01/05/2017 18:12

Nope Grin

littlejeopardy · 01/05/2017 18:14

No, unless you are living in Italy and it is a recognised name over there.

onemumtwocountries · 01/05/2017 18:15

It doesn't mean baby girl in Italian!

0nline · 01/05/2017 18:30

It means "baby girl" in Italian

No it doesn't. You're thinking of bimba or the masc. plural which is bimbi. First vowel is i not a.

Bambi here means Disney deer. Oft heard yelled in these parts when I can't remember the italian for deer and start yelling Bambi like a loon while pointing excitedly.

DramaAlpaca · 01/05/2017 18:49

Oh dear no, it's ridiculous.

Please tell me you are just having a laugh with us.

WaitrosePigeon · 01/05/2017 18:50

Christ no!

Gallavich · 01/05/2017 18:51

Jesus no
