Coyote Origin and Meaning

The name Coyote is a boy's name.

Native to America, the coyote has long been associated with danger and independence and with the popularity of Fox, Tiger, and Wolf, plus that cool KAI sound, Coyote might have potential. Possibly still too associated with the film Coyote Ugly and Wile E. Coyote, the Looney Tunes character, it is certainly a strong statement name for American nature lovers.

Given to 19 boys in 2023 but only 8 in 2024, influencers Julia and Hunt Havens also chose Coyote for their son's middle name it 2025.
