After an exhaustive search all over creation, I have not been able
to find out if my given name is used more often in any particular part
of the U.S. Any one have any comments?
Aubrey is my given name. Bo is my nickname. Both came from my
grandfather.
other facts:
I'm male, Southern and my wife and I are expecting our first child
in a couple of months.
What are your ideas on using Aubrey as a name for either a boy or
a girl?
All comments are appreciated;
Bo

Aubrey is a wonderful name! It has always been
my favorite. I would however, tend to use it for
a girl. Also, I imagine people would constantly
try to substitute Audrey??? That is what keeps me from
putting Aubrey on my list of possibles. Audrey is a
nice name too, but if what I want is Aubrey, and folks
will insist on using Audrey, why not just use Audrey!
Since Audrey seems to be a more definitely feminine name,
I suppose you never had the problem of being called
Audrey instead of Aubrey....

I live in Colorado Springs, I know of 2 Aubrey's, a Jr and Sr.
Needless to say they both are male. Aubrey Sr. was in the military
and retired here. I don't know where he came from as I never asked.

That is my most favorite name for a girl absoulutely beautiful
-not bad for a guy either. I have always loved the name and never
new anyone with it. There is a song called "and Aubrey was her
name."
Take care!\

Under the boy's section in my babynames book, it
says Aubrey means "ruler of the elves" and is
Teutonic. It also lists a nickname as Bree.
I don't know anyone by this name and hadn't heard
of it until this note.

Ruler of the Elves
