Love my name

My name is Aubrey, and I must say, I love it. I was named after the song by the band Bread, and my middle name, Linda, is my grandmother's first name (Linda Lou). My mother's name is Michelle. I guess you could say we all came from songs, haha. I love this name however. Aubrey Lynns are very common, so I am glad my name is Aubrey Linda.

I think aubrey sounds more feminine and should be used more for a girl than a boy.

My eldest sons name is Aubrey and his name is preferred for males in England. I would have never even thought of naming a girl Aubrey. Aubrey is the KING of the elves in three German fairy tales and then there is an Aubrey who is the son of a king in a Nordic tale. To even think of a girl named Aubrey is funny to me. Kind of like naming a boy Elizabeth or Caroline. Perhaps a girl Henry or Michael. I guess it just proves there are some serious cultural differences between places.

I don't really care if it's a boy's or girls name. Personally though, I like it on a girl better than a boy.
