I actually don’t mind it at all. I think it’s very sweet and has a cute, retro, vintage vibe. I think that’s what appeals to people. It seems friendly and happy too. I wouldn’t use it, but I do like it.

I like it so I get the appeal and somehow separate it (not completely of course because it’s in the name) from the word ‘Bird.’ I didn’t actually know it was becoming a trendy celeb name though. Anyway, i think it’s sweet, simple and unusual but not unheard of.

I don't understand the appeal of it either. It makes me think of those type of words as well so I think it sounds very infantile. I don't like it even as a nickname but I think it's worse as a formal name.

I’m not really a fan. I don’t get the appeal either.

I like it. I think it's a lot better than Bear, which is another trendy celebrity name. People say it's cutesy, and maybe it is, but cutesy doesn't always bother me. It's a bright, happy name with a lot of optimism. I appreciate it.

I've seen references to it as a nn for Bridget, though I've never had first-hand experience of that. I suppose people love birds? And when a baby is being fed mushy solids, the mouth opens like a baby bird expecting a worm? It doesn't appeal to me, but of all the possible nns for Katharine, the only one I'd use would be Kitty! So clearly I;m not objecting on principle.

I think it's a little sad. Like as if the parents wanted to be vintage but didn't know how and it kinda says a lot about celebrities lol. And there's " flipping the bird" and birdies in tennis. It sounds babyish, too like they'll get to be grownups and still be called Birdie?

It's either old lady or very babyish.

No, I sure don't get the appeal. All I can think is an old lady who is a birdbrain.

I don't get the appeal either. Then again, I think a large percentage of celebrities have marshmallows and dryer lint for brains, so who knows what makes them like the names they like? :)
It feels very backwoods and also like an unflattering nn to me. Like Shorty or Chubbs or Tinselteeth.

I like it a lot. It gives me the same feeling as Daisy.

I do get it. It's a little quirky and feels a bit retro. I find it cheerful and charming. What I can't decide is if I prefer it as a nickname or as a stand alone. It honestly works either way for me. I can see where it would not be everyone's cup of tea, though.

Dont like it all, as a name of a animal
