What does the name Audrea mean?

Audrea is a spelling of Audrey, pronounced the same way, so it shares Audrey's meaning and origin.

Audrey is a medieval English form of the Old English name Æthelthryth, made of æthel, 'noble', and thryth, 'strength'; DMNES gives the same analysis. Saint Æthelthryth, a 7th-century Anglo-Saxon queen who founded the abbey at Ely, was known as Saint Audrey, and Wiktionary notes that the word tawdry comes from 'Saint Audrey lace' sold at her fair. DMNES records both Audrey and the Latin Etheldreda in English records from the 14th to 16th centuries.
