They are quickly becoming one of the internet's favourite couple's. 

And Venezuela Fury's husband Noah Price has provided fans with entertainment once again after he struggled to announce Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury's newborn son's name. 

Tommy, who is Venezuela's uncle, revealed his son's name 'Midas' on Saturday night as he entered the ring for his fight against Eddie Hall with the name embroidered across his top and shorts. 

However despite the media attention surrounding the new name, the news seemed to have slipped past Noah. 

Not only did he not know how to pronounce it, he didn't even know whether the couple had had a boy or a girl. 

Chatting on the couple's livestream, he was asked by a fan: 'Have you met Midas yet?'

Venezuela Fury's husband Noah Price has been mocked by fans as he struggled to pronounce Molly-Mae and Tommy's baby name Midas - and doesn't even know if it is a girl or a boy

However instead of pronouncing it as 'My-das' he said Mi-das. 

Speaking out of shot, Venezuela asked: 'Have you met who?' as Noah replied: 'Tommy's girl? Or is it a boy?' 

Venezuela then confirmed it was a boy as fans took to the comments to mock Noah for his mispronunciation. 

Prior to giving birth, in a previous vlog Molly explained that the name is 'hard to pronounce' and whilst she admitted that it probably wasn't as out there as Bambi she said she only knows one other child who has the name.

The name Midas links to Greek mythology and the king of Phrygia, who was granted a wish that everything he touched turned to gold.

However, the story is actually a cautionary tale as Midas soon learned the downside to his gift when he turned his food, drink, and even his daughter to gold.

The phrase 'the Midas touch' is used to describe someone who has received great success, but it also has connotations of greed and foolishness.

However the name has divided fans as they reacted to the announcement, with some fans commenting that Molly-Mae and Tommy had 'missed the point' of the name, due to its connections to the foolish king.

Sharing their opinion on X, one person said: 'Midas. It's funny how they've missed the entire point of the story. It's one of the oldest and most famous cautionary tales.

'But they heard about someone being able to turn things into gold and thought it sounded great.'

Others said: 'Midas Fury... I just got flashbacks to higher English'; 'Saw Molly Mae calling her son Midas is ridiculous considering it relates to wealth/greed'.

Another mused: 'Saw that Molly Mae named her baby Midas and was like "oh yeah that makes sense, the Midas touch, turns everything to gold'; 'And then I saw comment from people in the UK saying they've never heard of the Midas touch before? Y'all the literacy problem is bigger than I thought'.

Some fans seemed unimpressed by the choice, saying: 'Surely Molly Mae and Tommy haven't named their baby Midas? Midas Fury? Bambi and Midas? Jesus Wept'; 'So Molly Mae and Tommy Fury named their baby after an insurance company?';

Others suggested Thumper would have been more fitting due to the Disney connection, musing: 'Midas Fury, very interesting not the worst they could've called him Thumper'; 'I'm sorry but Midas Fury? Would've preferred Thumper Fury'.

However, others shared their love of the name, revealing that they 'love' the couple's choice and branding it 'gorgeous'.
