Leicester fan Ashley Marriott has managed to convince his partner to give their unborn child the middle name "Vardy" in tribute of the striker.
Speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live, Marriott said:
"I've got a daughter on the way and we're naming her after Vardy as a middle name."He had to get 5,000 petition signatures in order to persuade the mum-to-be, something he achieved at a canter.
"That was done weeks ago, it was well over 5,000 - so it's definitely on. Her and her family are all Spurs fans so it's good for me!"
"I wish [it was Jamie]. But I don't think with even half a million signatures she would agree to that, even though it's a unisex name!"
