Bucky

Bucky is an American name for boys that’s well-known and loved thanks to Captain America’s sidekick-turned-dark hero, Bucky Barnes. Bucky began as a diminutive of last names like the British Buck and Scottish Buchanan but is ultimately thought to be a nickname derived from the Old English bucc and Germanic bukkô. Meaning “stag,” “buck,” or “male deer,” Bucky’s animal symbolism matches its swift and spritely energy.
