About Embry
Embry became viable as a first name when it was used for the (male) werewolf character Embry Call in the Twilight series. But its Em- beginning and -y ending give it a feminine sound, so we call it perfectly appropriate for a girl. Embry or Embury is an established English surname.
Pronounced EM-bree.
As of October 2026, Embry ranked #8493 in US births in 2024 SSA, peaked at #1042 in 1898.
Editor's take: The name Embry is a boy's name meaning "flat-topped hill".
