Two spellings: "blond" for men and things and often in American English for everyone; "blonde" often for women and girls, especially in British English, and as the noun "a blonde". Calling someone "a blonde" can sound rude; it is kinder to say "she has blonde hair". Jokes that say blond people are not clever are a false stereotype.
