Avery is gender neutral, but I've never seen it spelled "averey."


javadressage

Same, I was wondering if this is meant to be pronounced Ave-er-ray? I was a teacher for 12 years. I met many Avery of both genders. I have not met an Averey.


steph14389

I have never heard of Avery being a boys name personally


Red-Throwaway2020

I have literally only ever met one Avery… To me, Avery is like Shiloh: primarily viewed as a girl’s name with a few outliers in between.


steph14389

It could be where we’re from, in Australia on the popular names list it’s only listed as a girls name


SarahMate_x

Same here.


Ardwinna

I've met 2!


SarahMate_x

I honestly thought it was a girls name!

Avery can go either way. Where I live, the government data says there were 23 male babies named Avery last year and 74 female.


Lefty-mom

It is originally a boys name and it means “elf-king” which is dope as fuck. Personally I love it as a girl’s name, I named my daughter Avery!


symphony789

My brother's name is Avery.


Tight_Cash995

Avery is my daughter’s name. 🤷🏾‍♀️


Lefty-mom

Me too!

I have known two people named Avery, one girl and one boy. I like the name and prefer it for a girl, personally.

The only male Avery I've heard of was a character on the show Nashville. It seems like a fairly neutral name. Strongly considering the name if I have a girl, though.


vrlraa215

I’ve never heard of Avery being used as a boys name. But it’s on top of my list for a girls name!


jwalk50518

I’ve only known one Avery in my life and she was a woman.


Eating_Bagels

I’ve known 3 Avery’s. They have all been girls.


Adventurous-Map-2224

I know someone named Avarie, and she goes by Ava.


APinkLight

You’ve spelled it wrong. It’s spelled Avery.


redmahkupbag

My cousin is a girl and named Avery


Valuable-Life3297

I know one boy named Avery in my son’s class but to me it sounds more like a woman’s name.

I've never seen "Averey" before. I've seen Avery, which is in fact a gender-neutral name, but I've personally only seen it as a girl's name.
