最常用的有两种说法:profile picture和profile photo。
这里的 profile 就是“面部的侧影,侧面轮廓;简介;形象”的意思。
例句:
His profile picture of WeChat is a cute puppy.
他的微信头像是一只可爱的小狗。
Profile photo / picture多指个人的形象照片,所以这个头像大多用的会是“本人照片”;但是想要使用任何你喜欢的头像,比如风景、小动物等等,英语里面还有另外一个单词“avatar”,这个不是阿凡达吗?但是这个单词在牛津词典里面的解释是:
A picture of a person or an animal that represents a particular computer user, on a computer screen, especially in a computer game or on social media(社交媒体或电脑游戏中代表一个用户的人物/动物图片)所以,“avatar”这个单词更加贴合“头像”的含义。

“头像”的英文说法profile photo
profile 英[ˈprəʊfaɪl] 美[ˈproʊfaɪl]
n. 侧面,半面; 外形,轮廓; [航] 翼型; 人物简介;
vt. 描…的轮廓; 给…画侧面图; 为(某人)写传略; [机] 铣出…的轮廓;
[例句]His handsome profile was turned away from us.
他英俊的侧影从我们眼前转开了。
拓展资料avatar跟profile picture的意思类似,也可以表示“头像”。
Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English对avatar的解释是a picture of a person or animal that represents you on a computer screen, for example in some chat rooms or when you are playing games over the Internet,也即avatar多指在聊天室或网络游戏中的头像。
