Since Aubrey can be used for a boy or a girl, the MN Blake makes me think it's for a boy TBH. I'd put a more feminine MN with it.

IMO it doesn't flow very well and I also agree with Megan. I usually LOVE unisex names on girls, but Aubrey and Blake together make me think boy.

All the previous posts summed up my thoughts exactly. I think one or the other would be fine but the names are too unisex to be used together IMO. You either need a very feminine first name to go with Blake or vice versa.

I like it! I didn't realize that Aubrey was a unisex name. I've only known girls with that name.

Blake is one of my favorite female middle names, I love Roxy Blake, Lola Blake, Sadie Blake, Willa Blake, Lucy Blake, etc! I love masculine mn's paired with feminine first names. Aubrey is technically unisex, but definitely more common on girls....so I think Aubrey Blake works fine. The B in both names bothers me a tad, but it definitely isn't a deal breaker.
FYI Aubrey is 44 for girls and 938 for boys.

I don't see Aubrey as a unisex name at all. it's feminine to me. so, given that, I think it's fine with Blake, especially if Blake is a family name of some sort.

Well Aubrey is the first name we've picked - not changing it because we bought things with her name on it already. My grandma just passed away a few days ago, her name was Barbara. So the B in Blake is for her. DH likes Aubrey Brooke better... But I'm not 100% sold on it. Any other B name suggestions?

It's very masculine. However Audrey Blake is pretty. But I think Aubrey should have stayed a boys name and Blake is a boys name (one of my favorite boys names).

I like it. to me, Aubrey is 100% a girl name. I really like Blake too. I also like the suggestion of Aubrey Beth.
