Andrey would get confused with Audrey 90% of the time, and the other 10% would be pronounced as Ann-dree
I vote Andre. I actually don't think Andre reads AA. I've known several Andres that were Hispanic/Italian/latin, so that would be my first thought.
#1 Andre
#2 Andrei
All Andrés I know are french, not AA. SMDH.
André
Do you know French people named Andre or André?
To me, André is French but that’s as different from Andre as Andrei is.

Thoughts?
