Origin
Meaning and history of Aubrii
The name Aubrii is a variant spelling of the French name Aubrey, which has its origins in the ancient Germanic language. The name is derived from the Germanic root words "alf" meaning "elf" and "ric" meaning "ruler" or "power." Together, these roots form the name Aubrey, which can be interpreted to mean "elf ruler" or "ruler of the elves."
The name Aubrii can be traced back to the medieval period, particularly in France and England. It was a popular name among the nobility and aristocracy during this time, as the name's association with elves and supernatural beings lent an air of mystique and power. In the 12th century, the name appeared in the work of the French poet Chrétien de Troyes, who wrote about the legendary King Arthur and his knights.
One of the earliest recorded bearers of the name Aubrii was Aubrey de Vere, an Anglo-Norman nobleman who lived in the 12th century and served as Lord Great Chamberlain of England under King Henry II. Another notable figure was Aubrey de Vere, 10th Earl of Oxford, who was a prominent military leader during the Wars of the Roses in the 15th century.
In the 17th century, the name gained further prominence with the philosopher and writer Aubrey de Vere, who was a member of the literary circle around John Dryden and Samuel Pepys. He was also known for his close friendship with the poet John Milton. Around the same time, the English antiquarian John Aubrey made significant contributions to the study of antiquities and folklore in England.
Moving into the 18th century, Aubrey Beauclerk, 5th Duke of St. Albans, was a prominent figure in British society and served as Lord Lieutenant of Berkshire. In the 19th century, the name was borne by the English writer and philosopher John Aubrey Moyes, who was a prominent figure in the Oxford Movement within the Church of England.
While the name Aubrii has traditionally been more common among men, it has also been used as a feminine name, particularly in more recent times. One notable bearer of the feminine form was Aubrii Ibrag, a Ukrainian-American artist and painter who was active in the mid-20th century and was known for her vibrant and expressive works.

FAQ
Aubrii: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Aubrii?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 301 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Aubrii going back to 1880 and adjusting each cohort for expected survival using CDC actuarial life tables. The result is an age-weighted living-bearer count, not a raw birth total. That works out to about 1 in 1,138,719 US residents.
Is Aubrii a common name?
We classify Aubrii as "Very Rare". It ranks above 79.2% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 303 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Aubrii most popular?
The single biggest year for Aubrii was 2012, when 35 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Aubrii is about 10 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
What does the SSA popularity chart show?
The chart tracks births, not the number of people alive with the name today. Each point shows how many babies were given the name Aubrii in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Aubrii a female name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Aubrii in the SSA data are female. You can see the full per-sex comparison in the gender distribution section above, which includes the latest year rank, birth count, and peak year for each sex.
Is Aubrii still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Aubrii in 2024, and the page above shows its latest-year rank where available. A name can be well past its peak and still remain in steady use, especially if it built up a large population over earlier decades.
Why can a name have a lot of living bearers even if it is not trendy now?
Because living-bearer counts and current baby-name popularity measure different things. A name like Aubrii can build up a very large population over many decades, even if fewer parents are choosing it now than they did at its peak.
Where does this data come from?
First-name figures come from the Social Security Administration's national baby name files, which cover every name on a birth certificate from 1880 to 2024. Living-bearer estimates layer in CDC actuarial life tables broken out by sex to account for mortality. The population baseline (342,754,338) is the Census Bureau's latest national estimate. You can read the full calculation on our methodology page.
Does every first name have Census demographic data?
No. The public Census first-name release only covers names that met the Bureau's publication rules, so many rarer names in the SSA files do not have a published Census demographic snapshot. In those cases, the page still shows the SSA trend, gender history, and state data.
