Indy, sharing her lifelong love for the Disney classic and her habit of reading the book to her firstborn, Navy, recounted her journey to the unique name. Initially leaning towards the name Paloma for her second child, Indy was swayed by her daughter’s “sweet, curious nature” and “big brown eyes,” which resonated with the cartoon doe, prompting her to embrace the name Bambi.
