Girl, 5, ‘only person in world' to be named Snow White

SWNS

Meet the only girl in the world called 'Snow White' - who is her mum and dad's little princess.  Mum Lisa Morphy, 45, picked the name for five-year-old Snow-White Jennifer Morphy after she feel pregnant with a much-wanted girl after having three boys.  Lisa, from Northampton, said: "We knew she'd be our little princess. When my son suggested we call her Snow-White, I thought it was amazing.  "Everyone thought I was mad when I told them the name.  "She loves it - if people call her Snow, she corrects them - and she tells everyone how she's a princess.  "Airport check-ins can be hard, and people turn around or whisper when I call her name in public, but I don't care."  Lisa had three kids before she was hospitalised with a cyst wrapped around her ovary.  Doctors had to remove 75 per cent of one of the ovaries and she was warned it would be unlikely she could fall pregnant again.  But she had always dreamed of becoming a girl mum so was delighted when she found out she was pregnant with a daughter in late 2018.
