Analysis & Profile
Biography
Meaning & Symbolism
Aubree is a phonetic, modern spelling of the name Aubrey. Aubrey itself derives from the Germanic name Alberic, composed of the elements 'alb' (elf) and 'ric' (ruler, power). The name therefore means 'elf ruler' or 'ruler of the supernatural beings.' This connects it to themes of magic, wisdom, nature, and otherworldly power. While historically a male name, its use for girls became popular in the 20th century, where its softer sounds were reinterpreted as feminine.
Origins
History & Popularity
Aubrey was a masculine name for centuries in the UK. Its use for girls began in the 1970s, spurred by the Bread song 'Aubrey.' In the US, this trend accelerated dramatically in the 21st century. The 'Aubree' spelling is a very recent American innovation, designed to clarify the pronunciation and give the name a more modern, feminine feel. It peaked inside the US top 50 in the 2010s, significantly more popular than in the UK, where the traditional 'Aubrey' spelling is preferred and is only moderately popular for girls.
