Aubry is a French name with a rich history, derived from the Old French form of Alberich, which means "elf king." It was introduced to England by the Normans and has been used as both a given name and a surname. The name has undergone changes in usage over time, with its popularity fluctuating. In the Middle Ages, it was common, but it declined and was revived in the 19th century. Today, it remains relatively uncommon in the United States but is significant due to its unique origin and cultural associations.
