The choice of nickname has fans divided – and Ferne took to Instagram to speak out about it.
Ferne said: “Now the name… I knew it would split some hairs but I just think if you go for a popular name, an unusual name, no matter what name you go for there will always be a few people.” will not please me. It just is.
“But we all grow into our names and she’s such a little finty.”
She added, “Besides…let’s be honest. I couldn’t have gone for a standard name because it had to fit Sunday.”
“I named my daughter after a day of the week…
“Wednesday. Wednesday could have been a great vibe.”
Ferne explained how the couple chose the name OK! magazine: “It was on my name list when I gave birth to Sunday.
“I don’t know where I got it from, but when I put it in [on Google] I saw that Judi Dench’s daughter’s nickname is Finty.
“I’ve always loved it and have never heard it anywhere else.
“I just feel so connected to the name — she came out and was just Finty.
“I think she sounds like a character from Bridgerton.”
Ferne and Lorri got engaged while on vacation last July.
The couple started dating in 2021.
Ferne shares her eldest son with ex Arthur Collins on Sunday.
