Aubrey for a Boys name

[Bethi22]

I think girl but it sounds nice for a boy name as well!

I think the consensus is Americans think it's a girl name and everyone else says boy!

I really like this name for both genders .... Was thinking girl at first but know I e found out I'm hAveing a boy I'm still liking the name I think originally it was a boys name / surname ? I think if I used it for a girl I'd chane it slightly the spelling Aubrey is boyish for me ?? I like it !! For either !!

i think its awful name. 1st i think audrey (old womens name) then i think about the one outta teen mum. i really wouldnt call ur son aubrey , he could be bullied

^^^ sorry for brutally honest opinion

In the US, Aubrey is a very common girls name.

It's ranked 20 out of all names. I would not have thought of it as a boys name.

Thanks for your opinions ladies - I think we've decided against it - I just think he might get bullied and don't want that. Shame cos I love the name.

Good call Tink - too girly I think. Maybe a family pet one day?! Or middle name

I know two grown men named Aubrey! They are both fantastic people and don't seem to have suffered any name related trauma!

Aubrey reminds me of only fools and horses when we find out that it's Boycies middle name! I bet you're put off now lol

I personally think of a girl when I hear the name,,,,

My best friend just named her daughter Aubrey and my whole family thought it was nice but odd because Aubrey is a boys name... I see it as either!

I think the only Aubrey iv heard of is Boycie from only fools and horses same as Donnalou!
So based on that i'd say its a boys name!
