ArchivesRe: Brenley
in reply to a message by -=Silver=-
Welcome back!
The 'r' sound often used to migrate in words - like brid/bird - so I wonder if it wasn't perhaps Burnt Meadow? Not a patch on Raven Grove for beauty and elegance, though ...

as like the name brian, likely from bre came to associate with the suffix 'n'
brenley could be from bre
more of 'hill meadow/grove'
Modernly I think take random sylables and throw them together and we, with interest in such things, try to create a meaning.
Brenley though, doesn't seem as far fetched a name does it? It seems like it could be quiet common, from the sound of it.
Anyways, thanks anneza, i want to know why u think 'burnt' tho

Historical linguistics! As I said, in the past the R sound moved around in words like brid = bird or bride.
I found this on www.ask.co.uk when I entered: origin: Brentwood. OK, it's still got a T in it, but that doesn't prove much.
g 'burning', is a descriptive of the name 'Burnt Wood'. 'Fide' represents our faith in God, our fellow men and our future. >
