Aubray

Aubray is a feminine name that represents a modern variation of Aubrey, which originated as a Norman French masculine name derived from the Germanic elements "alb" (elf) and "ric" (power). While traditionally a boy's name, Aubrey transitioned to primarily feminine usage in the United States during the late 20th century. Aubray, with its alternative spelling, emerged as parents sought more distinctively feminine versions. The name carries associations with mystical strength due to its elvish origins. Its popularity has grown alongside similar names like Audrey and Aubree, though Aubray remains the less common variant. The name blends medieval heritage with contemporary style, offering a balance between uniqueness and familiarity that appeals to parents seeking a name with historical roots but a modern feel.

Pronounced AW-bray.
