Avery...

What does everyone think of Avery for a boy? And any other suggestions welcome! I
also really like Ellis but DH isn't keen. Thank you!

I knew someone who was a bit of a character with the surname Avery. His nickname was unsavoury. So personally I wouldn't think it was avery good idea as a first name

If it truly works as a unisex name, I like it, but I find that unisex names skew female, I have a girl cousin named Avery. Once a name is taken by girls, they seldom are shared with boys. For this reason, I'd probably not use the name. ☹️

I know both are boy’s names, but then so us Hilary, Leslie, Ashley, Lindsay, Taylor etc. I wouldn’t use either because they are turning feminine.

Avery is OK but prefer Ellis. I consider them boys' names but know girls of each.

Elliott is less contentious?
