Andrae

Andrae is an uncommon feminine name with roots in Greek language, deriving from the masculine name Andreas, meaning "manly" or "brave." Though traditionally used as a masculine name in many cultures, this spelling variant has been adopted for girls in some communities. Andrae offers a strong yet feminine option for parents seeking something distinctive. The name has never ranked in the top 1000 names in the United States, making it a truly unique choice. Its appeal lies in its melodic sound and the strength it conveys, while potentially honoring an Andrew or Andreas in the family tree. The spelling variation gives it a modern, feminine twist while retaining its classical origins.

Andrae is also given to boys, where it ranks #7225 in the US.
