What Does the Name Aubrei Mean?

Aubrei is a spelling variant of Aubrey, an English name derived from the Old French form Auberi. Auberi comes from the Germanic name Alberic, formed from alb ("elf") and ric ("ruler" or "power"). The elements mean literally "elf" and "ruler/power," and the usual English meaning is "elf ruler." The first element is the Germanic word for an elf, not the Latin albus ("white").

Aubrei Name History & Origins

Aubrey entered English through Norman French after the Norman Conquest. The Old French form Auberi corresponds to the Germanic Alberic, Latinized as Albericus. Anglo-Norman families brought the name to England; Aubrey de Vere, a 12th-century noble, is a documented bearer. In England the name became Aubrey and was used as both a given name and a surname. The surname helped preserve it after the Middle Ages, and Aubrey was revived as a first name in the 19th century. Aubrei is a later alternate spelling of Aubrey, so its development belongs to the history of that parent name rather than to a separate origin.
