It's a very nice name. I've only known it to be used as a man's name though.

I suppose if you name one child 'Aubrey', you've got to name another 'Maturin'... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aubrey%E2%80%93Maturin_series.

Through the SSA's website, I have been able to find a list of every name that was given to at least 5 babies born in every year from 1880 to 2012. Looking towards the end of the list, I have found the name Aubrey appear various times for names given to baby girls. Granted, it was an extremely rare feminine name, but it was still in use. For example, in 1915, 17 baby girls were given the name Aubrey. This could be in honor of a relative rather than an attempt to feminize the name, since names like John and Edward were regulars on the girls top 1000 for years, most likely in honor of relatives. Nonetheless, I prefer this name on males.

Completely a boy's name. As someone else said, add this one to the list of stolen male names now being slapped on females. I was recently talking to my great uncle about names like these; he mentioned that Aubrey was actually a pretty common name for boys when he was in school. If someone had brought up the prospect of naming a girl "Aubrey," everyone (including the girls) would have laughed their heads off! It was akin to naming a girl Bartholomew or Edward.

It has been used mainly in girls since the mid-1970's most likely due to the Bread song "Aubrey" which is about a girl named Aubrey.

Aubrey is a historically masculine name and the resemblance to Audrey is superficial, the only connection being that both are latinised forms of old Germanic names. Apparently, though, anything ending in an "-ey" sound is regarded as feminine these days. *sigh*
