How Audrey sounds in a full name
Audrey runs to two beats. It closes on a bright “ee”, and that ending sets the main trap: any middle name ending the same way turns the pair into a chant. At two beats, Audrey sits comfortably with one- and three-syllable middles; a two-syllable middle gives a steadier 2–2 rhythm, which some ears prefer and others find flat.
