Are you looking for a boy name that matches the sweetness of options like Honey and Mabel, Dulcie and Blossom, Mimi and Minnie? Do you want it to be just as endearing, but perhaps not quite so cutesy? How about Drury, brought to you today by Nameberry Guest Writer Ash (@/ashthedreamer):
A French surname meaning “dear friend,” it has one of the loveliest meanings and combines the friendliness of similar sounding names like Drew and Rory! I suppose the Drury Lane song could be a hold up but I love how wholesome and friendly he is. I would love to meet a little Drury!
Also a place name in the UK, Drury is definitely one that’s grown on me thanks to both Ash’s love for it and for its distinctive sound!
