About Teddy
Bold. Unexpected. Absolutely charming. Teddy breaks the mold for girls' names while feeling completely natural once encountered. Traditionally masculine, its adoption for daughters represents a broader cultural shift toward gender-neutral naming. The name radiates warmth and approachability—impossible to say without smiling.
Teddy carries inherent friendliness, the kind of name that makes people feel immediately comfortable. It suits tomboys and girly-girls equally well, never boxing a child into particular expectations. Short and punchy, it requires no nickname yet somehow feels like one already. The vintage revival trend has brought names like Teddy back into consideration, and its compact form fits modern preferences perfectly. For parents seeking something genuinely different without venturing into unfamiliar territory, Teddy hits that sweet spot.
