Tram bosses said she was " really excited" by the honour and wanted to attend the unveiling.

Earps will join football legends Brian Clough , Jimmy Sirrel , Jack Wheeler and Viv Anderson in having one of the.

Tim Hesketh, chief executive of Tramlink, The Group of companies behind The City 's network, said it was a " fantastic thing to do".

He Said : " [Mary] wants to Come Along to The Depot to do the unveiling. It's a lovely thing we can do with the trams - All our trams are named after the famous sons and daughters of Nottingham who put Nottingham where it is. "

However, Mr Hesketh said it will mean someone's name will have to be removed to make way.

" The biggest challenge we have is we only have a certain number of trams so it's really difficult, you can't just keep adding people forever, " He Said .

No date has been fixed for the tram to be named, he added, but NET said it hoped to update people soon.
