Bird names for boys are some of our favorites. These feathered finds connect to one of nature’s most incredible animals. Birds symbolize infinite possibilities and hope in countless cultures. Ranging from the small and delicate to the mighty and fierce, they aren’t one-size-fits-all, either. This makes them incredible name associations.
Bird names for boys may seem out there, but you probably have already met a few without realizing it. In fact, several of today’s popular names have bird meanings or associations. This includes Gavin, a Welsh moniker meaning “little white falcon.” Derived from the name Gawain, he’s a gentle spirit who’s common but not overly so. Another option is Corbin. This polished Englishman means “raven.” You likely know Drake, too. While he means “dragon,” he’s also the technical term for a male duck. We can’t miss Jay, either, a simple pick that can be short for names like Jason and is also linked to the ever-vocal blue jay bird.
Some bird names for boys are actual bird names, like Raven. While far more popular for girls, Raven is solidly unisex and can be worn by a boy just fine. Another option is Falcon, who’s fierce thanks to his association with the swift bird of prey. This is also true with Hawk. Robin used to be far more popular, but today he’s a vintage darling since dipping on the charts. Connected to beloved comedian Robin Williams and Winnie the Pooh character Christopher Robin, he’s a nostalgic choice for many. Check out Lark, Sparrow, and Starling for more literal bird names for boys.
Other bird names for boys carry their feathered connection through meaning, making them more subtle. “Dove” is a popular meaning, found with Jonah, Callum, and Jonas. “Eagle” is also common as a meaning, linked to monikers like Armin, Arnold, and Adler. Zamir‘s “songbird” and Efron‘s “singing bird” are music to our hearts, while Brannon‘s “raven” gives him a mysterious air.
Fly through our complete list for more bird names for boys.
