What do you think when you hear the name Avery?

DebbieH3 · August 2009

OK - due in 8 days and DH and I cannot decide on a name.

Just wondering of what you think when you hear the name Avery.

Also open to suggestions on names - maybe there's something out there that we haven't thought of. Note: DS name is Jack.

I think it's sweet & pretty. A friend of ours named their little girl Avery

Riley was my pick if we were having a girl. GL!!!

Jocelyn0415 · August 2009

Avery was our boy name. I've heard it for both girl and boy. I love it!

PitterPat11 · August 2009

I love this name. It was on our list when we were pg with DD. Its popular though.

iowagirl73 · August 2009

Honestly? I think ovary. But I also think girl's name and that, to me, it seems like a popular name. Not a bad one, just not one I would choose if I was having a girl.

I like Malia (muh-lee-uh), Amelia, and Lilianna though.

My daughter's middle name.

So, clearly, I love it! It's very feminine and airy sounding to me.

bunintheoven76 · August 2009

Its pretty, but I think of the bitchy girlfriend from Jerry McGuire.

UMwife · August 2009

I like it. It makes me think of a sweet, little girl. Also, Grace was the first name that came to mind as a middle name.

I think of my daughter because that's what we're naming her Wink

. We absolutely adore that name. Her full name will be Avery Elyse. Be prepared to hear stupid jokes about the paper goods company though. One of my idiot co-workers thinks it's hilarious to ask me "Where did you think of the name, in the supply closet?". I want to drop kick her.

My niece, Avery Elisabeth! I honestly love it..very feminine but a little trendy now, but I do really like it.

jennlynn41584 · August 2009

Love it!

Lizzerd13 · August 2009

I loved it but DH not so much so we had to move on. Avery Elizabeth was probably my top choice but DH and I had to come up with a different first choice.

nmr79 · August 2009

I think it's cute. I've heard it for both boys and girls and like it for both.

whitneyandbrook · August 2009

Great choice! Two of my favorite names! Unfortunately, can't get DH to agree.

Avery was high on our list and will be a definite contender if we have another girl down the road!

maze_bright · August 2009

I wanted to name out little one Avery! I love that name.

I hope you choose it!

elle_bee · August 2009

I think of the daughter of the obnoxious blond woman on the Real Housewives of NY (the one with the crazy eyes).

Very pretty name but I think that show ruined it for me.

PurplePeep · August 2009

I think sporty for some reason. Maybe outdoorsy.

twobecomethree · August 2009

i've heard of it for little girls but i honestly think of office supplies every time i hear it.

triplenine · August 2009

very cute for a girl. Probably can go for a boy too.

cstw · August 2009

I think it's a cute name that I hear a lot.

lori4740 · August 2009

I love it that is going to be our lil girls middle name.

Juleslovescats · August 2009

Its our daughter's name! Avery Clara. Well it will be her name when this child decides to be born!

I haven't really heard it that often actually. And I have no idea about the office supplies thing. All I know is we love it for a girl and it was the only name we could 100% agree on.
