Bambie is in Origin.

Bambie is a modern variant of Bambi, a diminutive-style pet name drawn from Italian bambino/bambina, “baby/child,” a word of nursery origin. In English it functions as a nickname turned given name, with the -ie ending reinforcing a feminine, affectionate tone. Spelling variants include Bambi (standard), Bamby, and elaborations such as Bambina; short forms like Bam or Bee sometimes appear informally.

Usage rose in the mid-20th century after the 1942 Disney film Bambi, adapted from Felix Salten’s 1923 novel, which cemented deer and woodland imagery and an aura of innocence, sweetness, and wide-eyed wonder. Though technically unisex - Bambi is male in the story - the name has been used chiefly for girls in Anglophone countries and remains rare as a formal first name, more common as a nickname or stage name. Bambie offers a playful, tender vibe for parents seeking a quirky nature-tinted choice.
