Molly-Mae Hague’s supporters are questioning the significance of her newborn son’s name after it was unveiled recently. Tommy Fury, the proud father, had pledged to display the name on his shorts during his match against Eddie Hall, the world’s strongest man. However, instead of the promised display, Fury opted to have the name ‘MIDAS’ prominently featured on his jacket. Despite this, there has been mixed feedback on the choice of name, as some critics point out that in Greek and Roman mythology, Midas was a king known for his foolishness and greed.

On Instagram, one fan expressed disbelief at the choice of the name ‘Midas’ for the baby, while others defended the couple’s decision, citing the name’s connotation as meaning “King.” Another supporter argued that ‘Midas’ is a divine name, suggesting that negative comments were unwarranted, especially considering Molly-Mae’s recent childbirth.

Further comments on the name revealed that ‘Midas’ is a common Greek name and is associated with being “famous for the golden touch,” shedding light on a possible reason for selecting the name. In ancient mythology, King Midas was famously cursed with the ability to turn everything he touched into gold, leading to the phrase ‘the Midas touch’ to describe extraordinary success or profitability.

After the birth of their second child on June 3, Molly-Mae and Tommy shared a heartwarming family photo on social media, announcing the arrival of their newest family member. The couple already has a three-year-old daughter named Bambi, and their joyous family moment was met with warm wishes from their followers.
