Aubrey (/ˈɔːbri/) is a traditionally male English name. It was quite common in the Middle Ages, but had lost favour for a time before experiencing a resurgence of popularity in the 19th century.

In the United States, following the 1973 release of the song "Aubrey", by the band Bread, Aubrey began to be commonly used as a given name for girls, potentially influenced by its similarity to Audrey. In 2023, Aubrey was the 101st most popular girls' name in the United States.
