I'm kind of the opposite, I don't mind Aubrey, and I like the sound of Aubrey Renee more than Emily Renee. That and there's also a chance of there being 2 or 3 other Emily's in her class
Aubrey sounds very juvenile to me and like it wouldn't grow well. Funnily enough I do really like Audrey.

Emily is classic. Aubrey is trendy and will sound very dated to her generation. And there is also a pretty darn good chance there will be other Aubrey/Aubrees in her peer group, so I'm guessing OP doesn't really care about popularity.
I have a friend named audrey, that's one of the reasons why it's not on our list. Our first thought was Emily, but DH brought up Aubrey. I just wanted to see opinions on it. Looks like we'll stick with Emily.
I have no logical (or illogical for that matter) explanation for it, but I strongly dislike the name Emily.

Re: poll- what girl name do you like better?
Emily, because it's not a name that will sound dated in time.
Do you like Audrey at all?

Emily. It's all girl and easily identifiable when I read it. I always read Aubrey as Audrey initially.
