Aubrey or Avery?

[Moonnie]

We don't like Audrey.

Which do you prefer? Aubrey or Avery?

Can people please not be extremely negative? I can deal with some, but I'm extremely stressed. She needs to be registered soon and I'd really like it to be a name we like without being put off.

I prefer Avery Ave -er - ree.

A names are great:
Amelie
Ariadne
Anya
Annie
Alicia
Aria

I love Aubrey

It's really strange that some posters say that they have only heard of this name being used on boys as I'm the complete opposite.

I have always associated Avery as a boys name and only ever heard girls being called Aubrey

I like Aubrey.

I know someone with a young son called Aubrey.

I prefer Avery .

I thought it was a boy not a girl but I like Aubrey better.

To me they're both boys' names. Avery seems a bit more more unisex than Aubrey because it's a surname rather than a traditional first name, so I suppose it could be used for either sex.

Avery is lovely. I also like Avril

How about Audra?

Both Aubrey and Avery are male names

Avery seems a bit more more unisex than Aubrey because it's a surname rather than a traditional first name, so I suppose it could be used for either sex.

They're both also surnames.

Aubrey. Avery is definitely a boy's name... Aubrey does seem a bit girlier, not sure why, tbh.

But Audrey would be nicer. At least imo.

I prefer Avery. I think if you go for Aubrey you'll be constantly explaining it's not Audrey.

I say A-ver-y. Three syllables.

I know a girl named Aubrey and a man named Avery. And, according to stats, Aubrey is apparently a currently surprisingly popular girl's name (whereas Avery is still more popular for boys than for girls)...

Avery is beautiful. ❤️
Not keen on Aubrey, think of if as masculine.

I really like Aubrey :-)

They are both surnames but Aubrey has a long tradition of being used as a first name and I don't think Avery has.

Avery

Aubrey is cute! No keen on Avery- there is a male character on Nashville with that name.

First

There's also a (male) deatheater in HP called Avery. But I don't think he's all that famous.

Aubree

Brianna? (Bree anna)

Avery.

I know you're saying 80 girls got named it but I still see Courtney, Taylor and Ashley as boys names no matter how many girls I meet with those names. In fact I adore all of the above for boys, and can't stand them on girls.

That being said I do have a bit of a unisex name and it doesn't bother me when I meet guys with the same name I just think it suits me better

Aubrey is much nicer. Not as keen on Avery, I do know a baby girl called Avery and I actually think they both sound like girls names so I don't see that as a problem.
People will, can and do pick holes in any names and will associate it with different things. Go with your gut instinct and it will all be fine.
Good luck with the birth

Oh re-read you need to register. Definitely Aubrey
