Suzume (雀) is the Japanese word for "sparrow." Featured in the classic Japanese folktale Shita-kiri Suzume ("Tongue-Cut Sparrow") and in Makoto Shinkai's anime film Suzume (2022).
Among the most beloved modern Japanese feminine names.
Suzume does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.

In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Suzume reduce to 6, The Nurturer. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
