Audrea

Audrea is a feminine name that functions as a variant spelling of Audrey, which derives from the Anglo-Saxon name Æðelþryð, meaning 'noble strength.' This alternative spelling maintains the traditional pronunciation while giving the name a slightly more elaborate, distinctive appearance. Audrea gained modest popularity in the mid-20th century, particularly in the United States during the 1970s, though it has always been less common than the standard Audrey. The name carries the same sophisticated heritage as its more traditional counterpart, evoking connections to figures like Audrey Hepburn while offering a subtle uniqueness. Audrea balances classic elegance with individuality, appealing to parents who appreciate traditional names but desire a less common variation.

Pronounced aw-DREE-uh.

As of October 2026, Audrea ranked #13802 in US births in 2022 SSA, peaked at #1427 in 1967.
