The slang term “Bambi” refers to someone who is naive, innocent, or inexperienced. They often lack worldly knowledge or street smarts.
“Bambi” is derived from the Disney character of the same name, who is portrayed as an innocent and wide-eyed young deer. In slang, calling someone a “Bambi” suggests that they are similar to the character in their lack of life experience or awareness of the harsh realities of the world.
Example 1: “Don’t expect John to handle that tough negotiation; he’s a total Bambi when it comes to business.”
Example 2: “Sally has never been to a big city before, so she’s like a Bambi in New York, completely mesmerized by everything she sees.”
