Molly-Mae Hague has turned the comments off her post after trolls decided to cruelly criticise her choice of baby name.
The Love Island star, who welcomed her daughter on January 23, revealed she and beau Tommy Fury had called their bundle of joy Bambi as she posted a snap of the tot on her Instagram.
Molly-Mae's photo shows her newborn daughter laying in a see-through cot with a Disney's Bambi plush toy next to her while her name is lit up in a neon light hanging on the wall of the nursery.
As the proud new mum, 23, shared the image on her Instagram page, she simply penned her daughter's name in the caption as she wrote: "Bambi" alongside a white heart emoji.
Bambi is a name of Italian origin and is thought to derive from the word 'bambino', which means 'child'.

The 23-year-old continued: "You're everything I could have ever dreamed of for a mum and role model for our perfect girl.
"Thank you for making my dreams come, true babe, I love you."
The couple had chosen the name for their baby girl years before her arrival, with Molly-Mae admitting it would divide fans before she revealed the moniker.
She previously 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."
