Meaning & origin

The name Andree first appeared in U.S. birth records in 1915, and while it never entered the top 1000, it saw a notable peak in 1960. After a period of decline, the name has been rising again since 2022, showing a small revival. Its usage has been almost exclusively in the 1960s, with few records in other decades. Andree is most often a masculine name, but it has also been used for girls, reflecting a broader trend of gender-neutral French names in America. Despite its rarity, the name carries a classic European charm.

Andree is most commonly considered a French feminine form of Andre, which itself derives from the Greek name Andreas, meaning 'man' or 'warrior.' In English-speaking countries, it has also been used as a masculine variant of Andre. The name saw modest use in the United States beginning in the early 20th century.
