As an American, my first thought was that it's a shortened form of trendy "Brant-" names, which turned me off from it. Since I've learned that it's from a last name coming from some very cool Nordic or Germanic given names, it's grown on me. Unlike many other older names from those origins, it does not sound very unusual to modern ears. As an added bonus, the fact that it is monosyllabic makes it easy to pair in a first-middle name combination. However, given the association with the aforementioned trendy names, I would go with "Brand" or "Brandt" instead if you are an English speaker.
