Like the bird of prey
Derived from the Middle English word 'hauk', this name originally served as a surname for someone who trained hawks or possessed hawk-like characteristics such as keen eyesight. It is a modern, nature-inspired variation of the more traditional surname Hawk. The addition of the 'e' provides a slightly more sophisticated, surname-style aesthetic.
Fewer than 5 boys were named Hawke in 2025.
