You'd have to ask Fowler, but certainly when he coined it, "Bambi" was the
last thing on anyone's mind.  I believe Fowler's intention was "one that
thumps" (or, in the unique parlance of a certain Commander-in-Chief,
"one that gives a thumpin'").

me, I always thought of calling sandworms.

sandworms use up a lot of space, you see...
