Definition
A type of freshwater catfish with a broad, flat head, or a stubborn person who refuses to change their mind.
Etymology
From 'bull' (Old English bula) + 'head' (Old English heafod). Named for the fish's distinctive wide head shape; the personality meaning developed as a metaphor for obstinate behavior.
Kelly Says
Bullheads are real fish found in North American rivers, and they're actually tough little survivors that thrive in murky water—so calling someone a 'bullhead' captured both their physical hardheadedness AND their ability to survive tough situations!
