I LOVE this name, all thanks to the gorgeous Audrey Hepburn! I think it's a lovely name, that would sound very cute on a little girl these days. Unfortunately DH doesn't feel the same way about the name and has vetoed it! Helena is nms though.

I think its rather boring. I prefer the Lithuanian Audra. Though, Audrey does go well with Helena. I don't hate Audrey, it just does not wow me.

I love it, but Helena isn't my thing

I love Audrey. It is a pretty classic. It is strange that I ended up liking it. I had gone to school with a girl named Aubrey and I much preferred that to Audrey. Then I became a name nerd and now I only like Audrey. :-) It sounds lovely with Helena.

It reminds me of Audrey Hepburn, so I see it as glamorous and sophisticated, as well as sprightly. Audrey and Helena make a good sibset, and Audrey Helena makes a beautiful combo.

Generally I like the mix of soft and hard in names but Audrey is unappealing to me. It's better than a lot of names out there but definitely not a favorite. I prefer the sound of Aubrey.

Audrey and Helena work well as a sibset.

I like it, it's charming and sophisticated. Audrey and Helena's a lovely sibset.

Where I live, Audrey's plump, plain, middle aged and working class.

I would pronounce Helena as Helen + a. I greatly prefer Helen, though, and I don't like he LAY na at all. Helen sounds much younger than Audrey to me.

I've really started liking it lately. I think it's classic and cool and sophisticated, and a little dark and alluring. Audrey and Helena are wonderful for sisters.

Audrey is pleasant (my gran wanted my mum to name me this, and I wouldn't have minded), but I wish it wasn't the name of the beefy stubble-chinned man-in-drag in a series of paper towels ads on Brit TV! (The other one in the ads is Brenda).
Helena is lovely, and the sibset is nice, except for the fact that to me Helena sounds more classic and romantic than Audrey.

Love it, and love the sibset. Audrey is the name of my great aunt and she's one of my favourite people. I don't like Helen as it sounds too blunt, but I do love Helena. 10/10.

Audrey has an old fashion air about it that I like. I personally like the name.

The sibsset work out well. Both are classic sounding names.
