Meaning & origin

Audri is a rare, modern variant of the classic Audrey. First recorded in 1957, it remained obscure for decades before reaching its peak rank of 6,838 in 2010. Since 2011, its usage has been declining, with only about 1 in 100,454 newborns receiving the name in 2025. The name is most commonly found in Texas. As a streamlined, vowel-friendly alternative to Audrey, Audri fits a trend of short, spunky names ending in 'i' or 'ie' that were popular in the 2010s.

Audri likely emerged as a modern variant or diminutive of Audrey, itself derived from the Old English elements æðel 'noble' and þryð 'strength'. It gained some usage in the late 20th century, particularly in the United States, as an alternative to more common forms like Audrey or Audra. Its independent use may also reflect a trend of shortening longer names like Audrina.
