Share Your Thoughts 11 Comments Kristen Aug 3 at 10:24 am My boyfriend and I were at one of my check ups waiting for the doctor to come in we were discussing names and I had been trying to talk him into a boys name that I love in love with when I was found out that I was pregnant with my 11 year old daughter and he said nope not happening that name was Bentley and I don’t know how it came to me but I said what about Avery he said wow yeah I like that name and I have not heard that name in a long time and it is not something that is common either now I said I know and then Avery’s middle name is his father’s middle name Reply Kristen Aug 1 at 9:44 pm I was at the doctor’s office with my boyfriend(Avery’s father) and he said absolutely NO to the name I originally wanted to name him which was Bentley and Avery just came to my mind and when I suggested it he said OH WOW I have not heard that name in a long time oh yeah I like that name it’s not common I said I know that is why I like it. Reply Dawn Jun 8 at 11:07 am We had a family name Goodman and so we loved the name Avery Goodman . I loved thinking of telling him before he was born that we knew he’d grow to be A very good man. Perfection Reply Requel May 2 at 8:36 am When searching for his name, I wanted him to be unique and carry the characteristics and life meaning of his name. Avery transcribes to a “Noble King” I want him to remember that he is a king and that he should be nobel at all times. Reply James Armonie Wise Feb 14 at 8:16 am My son is Avery James and it is perfect! Reply Tiffany Nov 29 at 12:20 pm We went through tons of names and it’s the only one that stuck out to us! When I was little I remember hearing it and loved it as well. Reply Laura Jun 18 at 7:30 pm 1. I really loved how gender neutral the name is. 2. It took us almost 4 years to get pregnant and he was finally conceived through our second round of in vitro fertilization. Our journey and struggle made him “a very” special little boy! 3. We’re a bit nerdy and I thought the name’s meaning- ruler of elves- was pretty adorable. Reply Cynthia Mar 4 at 7:43 pm My husband was inspired by Uncle Phil from The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. The actor’s name is James Avery. Reply Sarah Aug 20 at 1:00 pm I loved the meaning, “Protector of the Innocent” and how it sounded with his middle name, Avery Duncan. The only thing I don’t really like is that it doesn’t exactly have a built in Nickname. Reply Mandi Aug 9 at 9:51 pm Love this boys name. My little man is named Avery Joseph. After his grandpa Joe and a variation on my husbands name Such a classically masculine name.
