About Bird
We once dismissed Bird as "too flighty", but with the rise of avian names from Lark to Robin to, well, Birdie, we don't see why Bird can't be a fine choice, especially as a middle name.
Bird for boys
A name that's unusual in that changing the i to a y -- as in Byrd -- makes it more masculine.
Pronounced BURD.
As of October 2026, Bird ranked #4371 for girls in US births in 1926 and #3269 for boys in US births in 1929 SSA, peaked at #550 for girls in 1880 and #754 for boys in 1880.
