Bambi for a girl?

[shuz1980]

What do you think of Bambi for a girls name?

No

Pretty nickname but not suited to everyone. That's why it shouldn't move past nickname territory.

Bambina is Italian for little girl, no?

It just reminds me of when people say 'ah, my little bambino'.

There are beautiful Italian girls names but Bambi isn't one of them. Would you want your child's name to mean 'little girl'.

@shuz1980

Bambi is an Italian girls name that means baby girl. Thanks for all the feedback though.

Are you 8n the UK? If so more people will be aware of the boy deer with the dead Mom. Also why would you want a teenager or adult essentially called "baby girl"

Hello bambinos comes to mind.

Don't do it. She will be bullied in school. Then imagine filling out job applications when she's older?

No way

@QueSeraSarah 🤣 Bambi goes crazy ape bonkers with his drill and sex!

OP, going against the grain. I love it. My friend very nearly used it, Nala was also on her list. She did end up calling her Bambi as a nickname and it suits her so much; beautiful green eyes, dark hair and skin, a gorgeous child.

No way! 😆

No. What if she has a limp or wants to be a Dr?

I would always avoid baby names that conjure up a certain physical appearance. It is sod's law that a child would look nothing like their name.
It would be like calling a boy Rambo.

Just no.

Pls give your daughter a strong, empowering name, not one that reminds ppl of baby deers and strippers.

Just no, that is a terrible name for a baby and one which will be even worse on an adult.

You definitely run the risk of people not taking her seriously. I'd not saddle a kid with that name. Girls grow up to be women. It's not cute for an adult woman.

Please don't call her Bambi, there are so many other beautiful Italian names that don't carry so much baggage.

It's gorgeous, very cute. But living in England I probably wouldn't x

@CandyLeBonBon

Bambi was a boy and his mum died.

This is a great synopsis 🤣

That's not what a baby girl is called in Italy though.

Please don't do it, it's awful.

I now understand why some countries have an approved names list

A distant relative of mine is called this. She is in her 70s now. A lifetime of amusement

@shuz1980, did you get the name Bambi from an online Italian baby names list or do you know italian women called Bambi? Baby name sites ofyen have dodgy entries

Bambi y Lola is a spanish company and was named after the founder''s dogs.if that's where you got it. Not sure if the dogs were/are female.

So it is maybe a girl's name and definitely a male baby deer's name and a dog's name.

@roadwarrior

Please don't call her Bambi, there are so many other beautiful Italian names that don't carry so much baggage.

I read that as Bambi is an Italian baggage/ luggage company

Other suggestions could be Samsonite, Kipling, Etc

Dreadful. No!

One of the women murdered at White House Farm was nicknamed Bambi. Another negative association.
