BRUNO is an awesome name! I know this little boy with this name. He's so cute! But anyway, this name is awesome, but it depends on how you think of it as an adult name. Hmmm...

My husband's middle name is Bruno. It gives ethnicity to his name. It's a fun and strong middle name. In high school his friends called him Bruno. Kinda unique, huh?

This is the name of a dog on Cinderella. Remember the dog who dreamed about catching that evil step-mother's cat? He was also turned into the driver of Cinderella's pumpkin carriage.

I'm named Bruno and live in Brazil. What I can say about this name? Every year I had to study with at least one Bruno, since it is so common here. :P

I would never name my kid Bruno. I associate the name with density and stupidity.

Bruno Mars: a singer.
-- sailormars 10/11/2010
In 2009, Bruno was on rank 112 of the most popular boys' names in Germany. Still many people seem to consider it rather old-fashioned. Personally, I have yet to meet a Bruno who is younger than 50.

It's also used in Poland and pronounced BROO-naw here.

I really hate this name. It makes me think of Bruno Mars, who I also hate. If I could strangle a song it would be his song Grenade. So yeah, I probably won't ever use this name.
-- guardgirl15 6/16/2011
Why hate on Bruno Mars? That was rude an unnecessary. Besides, his real name is Peter Hernandez. He adopted the name Bruno after a wrestler.

I can't help but like this name. Masculine, classic, and there's something rather sensuous about it.

I am sorry, but when I hear or read Bruno I must always think of the name of a dog, even though I know someone with this name.
