Do you ever capitalize happy birthday?

Answer 1

Well, From what "I" learned in all grades in school, Those two words were NEVER capitalized! Juuust the name of person celebrating on that day!Case-in-point, Washingon's birthday, on your calendar, you will notice ONLY his name is capitalized, NOT the words, birthday!!!!!!!

Answer 2

Depends on the context.

"Everyone wish my friend a happy birthday!" Isn't capitalized, since it's using the term in the same sense of having a bad day, or a good one.

If you're singing the 'Happy Birthday Song' or 'Happy Birthday' to someone, then yes, it is capitalized. (Unless you're not singing the copyrighted song, and your song is made by you, then it's your choice. But if it's being used as the title of the song, then yes, it is capitalized.
