Meaning & origin

Aundray is a rare modern American name, first recorded in 1959. It never entered the U.S. top 1000 and has remained uncommon, with its peak usage in 1974. The name did not appear among the top states in any recent decade, and its trajectory has been stable at very low numbers. Likely a stylistic variant of Andre, Aundray reflects mid-20th century naming trends that favored invented spellings and the -ay suffix. It is a name that stands out for its uniqueness rather than familiarity.

Aundray is a modern American coinage, likely influenced by the name Andre (French form of Andrew, from Greek Andreas "manly") and the fashionable -ay suffix seen in names like Brayden and Jay. It first appeared in U.S. records in 1959, with a peak of usage in 1974. The name remains rare and has not seen sustained adoption.
