I suppose I shouldn't have said "only ever used," since I'm sure there are a few boys named
Avery ruining around. But I do live in British Columbia (which is what I meant by "my part of the world"), and I imagine there is some regional variation as Canada is a rather large country. For whatever reason BtN's popularity charts only include British Columbia rather than the whole of Canada, and
Avery for a boy has never charted here (it may very well have in more eastern parts of the country).
I actually prefer
Addison as a masculine name, but I don't think I've ever actually seen it used that way.
