I'm only 16 weeks pregnant so could well change my mind but me and dp do not agree on names at all and we had a hell of a time naming ds1. Amazingly we both agree that we love the name Avery and would use it regardless of babies sex. Is this a silly idea? It's not a name I think I've ever heard anyone name their child and I'm worried about bullying.
Also recommendations of similar names would be most welcome!

Avery is a massive brand of weighing scales.

I've used them for delicatessen work, postage and fine and large laboratory scales.

I pass their factory every time I go to Brum.

Sorry. Thumbs down from me too.

My nephew - UK - is an Avery. It suits him to the T - we all love it - he's wild, free, totally suits it. I think I recall the initial 'aviary' connection but not since, it's his name .. and as someone pointed out it's actually pronounced differently. We do love unusual boys names though - I've got a Ridley which I love equally.
