AUDREY - Hepburn or Corrie?

I don't even know if I am having a girl, but I just love this name. However, my mum is a ridiculous soap watcher and I just know what her first comment would be. Which makes me think maybe other people would think of that old woman in Coronation Street (is she still in it, if not then perhaps that would help?).

I haven't come across any Audrey's at all. What do you think?

I think of my crazy aunt! She is the live and soul of any party and always a shoulder to cry on when needed.

Lovely name association for me. (Was a name I considered for my own DD too)

Lovely! I definitely think of Hepburn. It is popular in The States at the moment.

Definitely Little Shop of Horrors, but this is a good thing

Her off corrie will be probably be gone by the time your DD starts school though?! Sad but something to consider!

I think of Corrie, sorry!

Unisex, though apparantly most common to girls these days.

I like unisex names though, my daughters called Rorie.

Isn't Aubrey a boy's name?

I automatically think Audrey Hepburn but then I'm not a soap watcher and I love her movies.

It's a lovely name.

Disenchanted5 · 06/04/2010 19:18

I like it and don't watch corrie,

how about Aubrey for something a bit different?

Little Shop of Horrors. She's lovely
