Abcde (pronounced /ˈæbsədiː/) is a feminine given name in the United States. As many as 328 children, all girls, were named Abcde in the United States between 1990 and 2014.[1] As of 2017, 373 females were named Abcde.[2]

In November 2018, a five year-old girl named Abcde was allegedly mocked by a Southwest Airlines gate agent at John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana, California.[3] The ensuing news coverage compelled the airline to publicly apologize and privately reprimand the employee.[4]
