What does Birdie mean?
2 syllablesOrigin: English

Birdie is an affectionate diminutive of "bird," used in English simply to mean a little bird. It's also familiar from golf, where a birdie is a score of one stroke under par, though the pet name draws mainly on the plain, sweet original meaning.

Birdie is light and chirpy, a name that suits a small, quick, energetic pet — the kind who seems to flit from one spot to the next.
