Meaning & origin

Audric is a rare French name with ancient Germanic roots, meaning 'old, noble ruler.' In the U.S., it first appeared on record in 1989 and reached its peak rank of 6,446 in 2016. Since then, it has been on a downward trajectory. With only 1 in 131,390 boys receiving the name in 2025, it remains an uncommon choice, largely unknown outside of French-influenced communities.

Audric is a French name derived from the Germanic elements "ald" (old) and "ric" (ruler, power). It was borne by a 7th-century saint, Saint Audric (or Odric), a bishop of Sens. The name was revived in the 20th century but remains rare.
