FERNE McCann has admitted her new born baby girl's name has ‘divided’ opinion - but confessed she was never going to pick ‘bog-standard’ one.
The 32-year-old, who is already mum to Sunday, welcomed her second daughter on July 6.
Earlier this week Ferne revealed that she decided to call her little one, that she shares with fiance Lorri Haines, Finty.
The choice of moniker has divided fans - and Ferne took to Instagram to open up about it.
Ferne said: "Now the name... I knew it was going to split some hairs but I just think if you go for a popular name, an unusual name, whatever name you go for, the's always going to be a few people that won't like it. That's just the way it is.

"But we all grow into our names and she's such a little Finty."
She added: "Also... let's face it. I couldn't have gone for a bog standard name because it had to go with Sunday.
"I named my daughter after a day of the week...
"Wednesday. Wednesday could have been a vibe."
Explaining how the couple picked the name, Ferne told 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 typed it in [on Google] I saw Judi Dench’s daughter’s nickname is Finty.
"I’ve always loved it and never heard it anywhere else before.
“I just feel so connected to the name – she came out and she was just Finty.
"I think she sounds like a character out of Bridgerton.”
Ferne and Lorri got engaged last July on holiday.
