Is Kirby a boy or girl

Is Kirby a boy or girl
Research shows that Kirby is not a girl nor a boy he is a shape shifter so he/she could turn into a boy or girl.


The beloved Nintendo character Kirby is supposedly male. The name "Kirby" comes from a vacuum cleaner, but there are people(mostly guys) that are named Kirby. In Japanese manga and magazines, Kirby always used the word "boku", which is the masculine word for "I" in Japanese, so that's one hint that Kirby is a boy character. The official English Kirby website always call Kirby "him", and so does Wikipedia and the Kirby wiki.
