Kelvin and Liz Fletcher have delivered thrilling news to their children.

The married duo are mum and dad to Marnie, Milo, Maximus and Mateusz, and the clan faced a tricky choice during Sunday’s (December 14) instalment of Fletchers’ Family Farm.After a gorgeous bull calf made its debut on the farm, the youngsters were keen to christen him with a moniker.

Milo and Mateusz both favoured Wolf King, whilst Marnie plumped for Oliver, Maximus went with Spin, and Liz settled on Barry.

Having heard their suggestions, Kelvin disclosed that all newborn calves must be formally registered, and with this particular breed, the Lincoln Red Cattle society recommends which letter names should start with annually, reports the Mirror.

Upon discovering that 2025 marks the year of the letter E, Liz proposed they christen him Ezra after Kelvin confessed the sole name that resonated with him was “Emmerdale”, the ITV drama where he portrayed Andy Sugden for twenty years.

Kelvin and Liz subsequently delivered the wonderful update to their offspring that the calf would officially be known as Ezra, a decision that delighted the group, with Marnie spearheading a family sing-along of pop sensation George Ezra’s smash hit Green Green Grass.
