Animal Crossing: New Horizons is reaching its first birthday and that’s got us thinking about birthdays in general. The great thing about your island animal friends is that they’re always more than happy to throw a party, whether it’s for your birthday or for themselves.
Birthdays in New Horizons are adorable, the villagers get all dressed up, decorate their home, and even exchange presents. If you’ve ever wondered if you share a birthday with one of your favorite villagers, we’ve pulled together a list of every New Horizons villager that has a birthday in February just below.
28 February 28th — Naomi
Naomi is a cow villager that first debuted in New Leaf. Her vibrant color scheme and default clothing choice of the Groovy Tee gives her a rather eccentric appearance. Her catchphrase is “moolah”, a play on the sound cows make and the slang term for money, which suits her snooty personality.
27 February 27th — Rosie
Rosie is a peppy cat villager and is one of the fan-favorite characters from the series, with many seeing her as one of the mascots of the franchise. She has appeared in every game to date and the animated film Dōbutsu no Mori.
26 February 26th — Sheldon
Sheldon is a yellow and orange squirrel villager who has only appeared in New Leaf and New Horizons. Sheldon is a jock personality type, so he loves fitness and wellbeing and his catchphrase continues this theme as it is “cardio”.
25 February 25th — Hamphrey
Hamphrey is an adorable little black hamster villager who has only appeared in New Leaf and New Horizons.
He is a cranky villager type that loves nature, so you’ll often see him strolling around your island and admiring flowers.
24 February 24th — Anicotti
Anicotti is a green mouse villager that appeared in earlier Animal Crossing titles before going absent for a few releases, and then finally making her return in New Leaf. Her name (which is a play on manicotti) and her catchphrase of “cannoli” are both references to Italian food.
23 February 23rd — Pate
Pate is an adorable pastel blue duck that has appeared in every Animal Crossing title so far. She is a peppy personality type who loves fashion and has the cute little catchphrase of “quackle”.
22 February 22nd — Avery
Avery is an eagle villager who falls into the cranky personality type. His appearance and home decor are reminiscent of Native American culture, while his catchphrase of “skree-haw” is a play on the phrase “yee-haw”.
21 February 21st — Puck
Staying with penguins, Puck is a villager whose name and default clothing are both references to hockey.
Despite this sporty link, Puck is actually a lazy villager instead of a jock.
20 February 20th — Sprinkle
Sprinkle is a peppy villager that first debuted in New Leaf. Her name and catchphrase “frappe” are references to cold drinks, which suits her perfectly as she is a penguin with a whippy-style curl on her head as if it were cream or icecream.
19 February 19th — Freckles
Freckles is a cute little pink duck villager that takes her name from her adorable freckles on her face. Freckles is a peppy villager that loves fashion and her catchphrase is “ducky”.
18 February 18th — Dora
Dora is an adorable little white mouse villager that has appeared in every Animal Crossing title to date. She falls into the normal personality category, making her super polite and friendly, and she loves education.
17 February 17th — Dobie
Dobie is an elderly wolf villager that falls into the lazy personality category. Rather interestingly, his house is set up as if he is some kind of criminal detective.
He rarely opens his eyes, but when he does they are rather creepy as they are fully black with yellow pupils.
16 February 16th — Anabelle
Annabelle is a bright and colorful anteater villager that debuted in Wild World and has appeared in every title since. She is a peppy personality type and is very energetic and excitable.
15 February 15th — Kitty
Kitty is a snooty cat villager that has a fashion hobby, meaning you’ll often find her in the Able Sisters’ store and she loves to talk about clothes. She has appeared in all main titles other than Wild World.
14 February 14th — Muffy
It makes sense that a fan-favorite should have the top spot and have their birthday on Valentine’s Day, and that’s certainly the case with Muffy. This adorable sheep villager has a gothic lolita style and has the sisterly personality type.
13 February 13th — Ribbot
Ribbot is often one of the most hated villagers due to his rather creepy robot design. His name is a play on the “ribbit” noise associated with frogs and the word “robot”.
Surprisingly, Ribbot is a jock personality type and loves sports.
12 February 12th — Drago
Drago is considered to be one of the rarer Animal Crossing villagers, and although he is technically an alligator villager due to his base model, his appearance is that of a dragon. Drago falls into the lazy personality category.
11 February 11th — Pompom
Pompom is a duck villager that first appeared in the Japanese-only Animal Forest. Her catchphrase of “rah rah” is believed to reference cheerleading, which perfectly suits her peppy personality type.
10 February 10th — Stitches
Stitches is one of the most popular villagers in the Animal Crossing fandom due to his adorable appearance that makes him look like a stuffed teddy bear. He is a lazy personality type that debuted in Wild World.
9 February 9th — Cleo and Flora
Cleo and Flora are the only animals to share a birthday in February. Cleo is a rather cute snooty horse villager whose catchphrase of “sugar” is a nod to horses loving sugar cubes.
Flora is a peppy villager classed as an ostrich due to her base shape but takes on the appearance of a flamingo. Her name likely comes from “Florida”, which is known for its flamingoes.
