Birdie?

[Babytalkx]

Is ‘birdie’ okay for a girl? I’m not too sure on the name extended e.g. birdette but I love it for a baby girl!

My mother thinks it’s a cruel name and that it could subject her to bullying?

Please help!!!!

beautiful name!! I have always loved it just looking in the future (god that sounded weird🤣) I don’t want your daughter to be bullied because of the animal!! Maybe make it double barrel eg Birdie-Rose it makes a name twice the beauty x

I've seen it useful as a nn for Beatrix

Why not call her Budgie then you could have Budgette as the extended name and she’d be all excited every time they mentioned the annual budget on the news 🙄

If this isn’t a joke, then why on earth do you think names have to be extended?? So Lucy has to be Lucyette, Poppy has to be Poppyette??

Birdie is an awful name. It reminds me of that film with Matthew Modine in. People will snigger at her all the time.

I like it! It’s cute but also cool.

NO.

No, it’s crackers, you aren’t giving birth to a budgie

It’s fine for a pet name but call her Bridget or Bridgette or something as a full name - or just whatever you like and use it as a nn

Give her a proper sensible name. You can call her Birdie as your pet name for her. I had a colleague whose daughter was called ‘chick’. Not her name, just what her family called her.

It's horrid!

Oh yeah because Birdie-Rose is a MASSIVE improvement

GET OFF THE SAUCE PP - the OP’s future budgie-daughter now sounds like a cross between a budgie and a cute garden implement from one of those weird catalogues that fall out of the weekend papers that’s mean to attract birdies to your flowerbeddies.

Awful 😂

I like it! I vaguely know of a little girl called Honor Birdie <surname>.

Listen to your Mother, she's right.

Birdette? Sorry, what?! Is that actually a name?

Also no to Birdie. It's absolutely dreadful.

Is this a joke. I hope so.

mitogoshi has never worked in hr in any professional capacity. The whole phrasing of my boss stuck them in the shredder is just off.

Thank you!😂

Thank you! I loved Ernie for a boy, I never even thought for a girl!

That’s my sisters name or I probably would’ve done that!

There’s a book about a dollshouse by Rumer Godden with a Birdie in it. She is a doll though. I agree that you could use it as a nickname but it’s not really fair to call someone that as their official name. They don’t stay babies / small children. Most of your life is as an adult with a job.

Its one of the worst suggestions I've ever seen on here

I like it as a nickname but it is like Bertie, Bertha, Brede, Bríd, Bridie. I don't know why I dislike those names, it's irrational.

I don’t know it sounded slightly better and also people have diff opinions x

Well some do refer to the final stage of pregnancy as the nesting phase

😂

Unless you're currently incubating this baby by sitting atop an egg in a nest, then no.
