Bamm-Bamm

Bamm-Bamm is a character from the animated television series *The Flintstones*—the supernaturally strong adopted son of Barney and Betty Rubble who gets his name from his habit of pounding things.

The name sometimes describes a small child with surprising strength or destructive energy: My two-year-old is a little Bamm-Bamm—he broke the coffee table.
