Need help on a name?

The name Avery do you think it is a boys or a girls name. My husband and I disagree. I know it is used for both but what is your first thought when you hear it.

 

Personaly I think it sounds most like a last name. Would be happy for any comment on that name.

I know only boys called Avery, so I instantly think it's more of a boys name thank girls (not that it is or anything).

I think it's a girl's name...

The first thing in mind is a boy`s name. Have a cousin who`s married to a guy named Avery.

According to this and several other baby names sites I've checked Avery is a male Anglo Saxon name meaning "ruler of the elves".

Sorry! Looked around some more, and it turns out it's a name that is common for both girls and boys.

 

Avery is in fact ranked the number 135 most popular girls name in the US.

I like the name Avery, and I think it suits either a boy or a girl.

 

The only Avery I'm familiar with is the fantastic actor Avery Brooks, who is a male.

In my "head" Avery is a boys name. And a really nice one too...
