Lovely on a girl, fine on a boy. (m)
in reply to a message by Egyptian Princess
The only Aubrey I know is a darling, sweet four-year-old girl nicknamed Bree, so the name automatically sounds very feminine to me. I like it much better than Audrey, mostly because it's less common, at least here, and I have bad associations for Audrey. I think it's lovely for a girl, though I think it would be fine for a boy as well, since it's traditionally masculine. I like it because it sounds up-to-date, but also has a history.
PS- I take back only knowing one Aubrey. I just remembered that I know another Aubree, nn Bree, but she is an 18-year-old girl, so that just reinforces the feminine feeling to me.
