I want a girls name that means bird, or a type of bird, or something about birds.



Like Ava, but less common. The meaning doesn't have to be just bird, but a type of bird too or something related.What do you think of Evelyn? names meaning bird?

I LOVE Evelyn. And so what if it's old-fashioned. Look at the names that are super popular right now - Emma, Hannah, Isabella, etc - they were considered "old lady names" just a couple years ago, and now half the babies in country have those names and people are avoiding them because they're too "trendy!" A child named Evelyn will have a beautiful name that's familiar but not so common that it's overused.



Evie is a cute nickname, too! (pronounced either "ee-vee" or "eh-vee" - both are cute).

Evelyn to me is an old lady name. I worked for years as a nurse aide and had several Evelyns who were patients. However that generation will be long gone by the time a baby born today grows up into adulthood. It won't be seen as an old lady name anymore. That aside the name isn't bad at all. I wouldn't choose it but I wouldn't put the name down.What do you think of Evelyn? names meaning bird?
Congrats on your baby girl! My friend just named her baby Evelyn and at first I thought it was too old fashioned but after seeing her grow a little bit she fits into her name.

Blue is a cool middle name like Blue jay.

Evelyn is my grandmothers name. I've always loved it. My most recent cousin was also name Evelyn after grandma, and we call her Evie (eh-vee)...a little more updated of a nickname for a beautiful old name!
