What do you think of Aubrey for a girl

[ElsaMars]

I love Audrey but it just reminds me of Corrie woman not Hepburn sadly

I really like Aubrey but is it too American sounding? It's not a American name - I thought it was but I checked.

And does it go with Layla? As a sibling.

[Vixxfacee]

Aubrey does sound American to me.
Audrey is an old womans name to me.

[BreakfastAtSquiffanys]

I've only ever heard ut used as a boy's name

[ThisPasadenaHomemaker]

Aca-scuse me?

I think it's awful. Really american and also masculine sounding.

Audrey isn't quite to my taste either but it's infinitely better than Aubrey.

[AnchorDownDeepBreath]

There's an Aubrey on Teen Mom. She's cute. That's the only time that I've heard of it.

[WinnieTheW0rm]

Boys name to me too (our former next door neighbour, lovely man)

[HeadDreamer]

Aubrey is a boy's name isn't it?

[NeedACleverNN]

It's gaining popularity because of teen mom

Along with Paisley

My great uncle was called Aubrey. A friend has just had a baby called Aubree (girl)

I don't mind it but it's heavily American

[Fallstar]

I've only come across Aubrey as a man's name (man in question was elderly). Never heard it as a female name.

[NisekoWhistler]

I know two Aubreys - both blokes

[GerundTheBehemoth]

To me Aubrey is a posh elderly British gentleman. But there is currently a young female American Aubrey on Celeb Big Brother.

[ChipsandGuac]

What's wrong with sounding American?! I know 3 female Aubrey's and they are all American and all lovely. It's a great name.

[CheeseCakeSunflowers]

I have always thought of it as a male name as I use to have an elderly male relation with that name. I only realised this week that it is also a female name as there is a female celebrity big brother housemate called Aubrey in the house at the moment.
I think it is a pretty name for a girl.

[MerryMarigold]

To me also a v posh name for a boy.

If you must use it on a girl, then I think you need to change the spelling never thought I'd say that!

I actually like Audrey (I don't watch Corrie) and is definitely in a different league to Deirdre. Although Orj for short is horrid.

[Allalonenow]

I've only ever heard it as a male name, have known two, both lovely old gents, so I do like the name.
I think if you used it for a girl, she would often get asked if her name was Audrey.

[MerryMarigold]

(I think of Audrey Tatou).

[DesolateWaist]

Aubrey is a male name but that doesn't seemed to have stopped all the Tonis, Sydneys and Robyns. although it should in my opinion

[Babymouse]

I knew a little Aubrey. I think it's a cute name.

[HeadDreamer]

Aubrey is a male name but that doesn't seemed to have stopped all the Tonis, Sydneys and Robyns.

If there are enough girls calling themselves Aubrey, then it's a girls name. It's just I've always thought of it as a old man's name. And I don't have a problem with changing usage as long as she's not going to be mistaken as a boy. Like calling your girl Ben or Oliver.

[ayeokthen]

Aubrey is traditionally a male name, however people seem to forget that Shannon, Morgan, Jordan, Riley, Taylor and lots of other names started out as boys names. I like Aubrey for a girl fwiw.

[HeadDreamer]

ayeokthen I think of Taylor as a boy's name still, except there's a Taylor Swift. Same with Jordan.

I can't recall a female Riley

[BertrandRussell]

It's a not very nice boy's name.

[MaisieDotes]

anchor I think she's Aubree.

[TuppencePenny]

Sounds like a man's name. Brings to mind an American boxer or something like that. In short- it's terrible.

[BertrandRussell]

So if you would be equally happy to call a boy Susan, then go for it.
