Proper noun

Starling

  1. Lua error in Module:names at line 633: dot= and nodot= are no longer supported in Template:surname because a trailing period is no longer added by default; if you want it, add it explicitly after the template from a nickname for a gregarious person.
    • 1859, Charles Dickens, The Haunted House:
      When we had all laughed and applauded till we were faint, Starling, not to be outdone, favoured us with a more modern saltatory entertainment in the Lancashire clog manner — to the best of my belief, the longest dance ever performed []
  2. A male given name transferred from the surname.
