Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury supporters are buzzing with opinions following the boxer’s unveiling of their second child’s name on his shorts before facing former world’s strongest man, Eddie Hall.

The pair opted to name their newborn son Midas, sparking a variety of reactions. One enthusiast commented positively, stating, “I actually really like the name Molly Mae and Tommy have chosen for their baby boy. It’s quite a stylish name!”

Some humorously remarked on the perceived cost of the reveal, with one quipping, “£15 for the name Midas, I surrender.” Another individual made a connection to the British band Wunderhorse’s song “Midas,” humorously noting, “Can you believe Molly Mae and Tommy Fury’s son is named after a Wunderhorse track?”

The name Midas draws inspiration from the legendary figure in Greek and Roman mythology known for turning everything he touched into gold. Notably, there seems to be no correlation to their three-year-old daughter’s name, Bambi.

The name was disclosed close to midnight on Saturday during a pay-per-view boxing broadcast on DAZN, with Molly present among the celebrities ringside in Manchester. In a light-hearted tone, one observer joked, “Why are all these men fighting at the Molly Mae baby name announcement?”

Back in March, Molly-Mae hinted to fans that she and Tommy had already selected a name, sharing, “I think we’re pretty much set on a name now, which is crazy.” She also expressed anticipation for potential criticism, saying, “I can’t wait for everyone to probably dislike it and be like, ‘What?’” Emphasizing their inclination towards an unconventional name choice, she added, “We were never going to call our baby just an ordinary name.”
