How to Say “Abby” in French

By Mike Edwin • Updated October 4, 2026

Abby

Abby is a female given name in French.

Abby is used as a feminine proper noun for a person's name.

Did you know?

French speakers may confuse Abby with the word abbé, which refers to a priest or a head of an abbey.
Unlike traditional French names that often have a specific 'Saint's day' in the calendar, Abby is not traditionally listed in the French calendar of saints.
In French, the sound of the letter 'y' in Abby is pronounced as a sharp 'i' sound, making it rhyme with the French word mi.

Examples in context

J'ai vu Aby hier, elle était vraiment drôle !
I saw Aby yesterday, she was really funny!
Je connais une fille qui s'appelle Abby.
I know a girl named Abby.
Est-ce que Abby est venue ce matin ?
Did Abby come this morning?
Abby est ma meilleure amie.
Abby is my best friend.
