The Story of Audree
Audree is a modern spelling variant of Audrey, which derives from the Old English name Aethelthryth or Etheldreda, composed of aethel (noble) and thryth (strength). Saint Audrey (Saint Etheldreda) was a 7th-century Anglo-Saxon queen of Northumbria who founded a monastery at Ely. Interestingly, her name gave us the word tawdry, from cheap lace sold at Saint Audrey's Fair.
Audrey experienced a massive revival after the rise of Audrey Hepburn in the 1950s, becoming one of the most beloved actresses and style icons of the 20th century. The name has remained fashionable, and variants like Audree reflect the trend toward unique spellings of classic names.
Audrey Hepburn transformed the name into a byword for elegance and humanitarian grace. The name also carries Old English royalty through Saint Etheldreda, the Abbess of Ely. In French, Audree maintains the same classic charm while fitting into French naming patterns.
