Brynna is a pretty form of this name for a girl.

I don't really know why, but I really like this name. It has a strange appeal to me. It sounds cute for a little girl, and could definitely grow up with her throughout her life.

"Bryn" and "Brynn" are both Welsh in origin and mean the same thing. One is almost certainly a variant of the other.

I love the name Brynn. I heard that it means great heights.

I have always loved the name Brynn, so much that it's my daughter's name. Everyone I meets thinks her name is so pretty. When I first picked it, my mother-in-law said, "I hate that name, I'm not going to call her that!" But now she loves it, too. And we have yet to meet another Brynn.

I love this name. It's short, simple, and pretty, but not too girly in a child-like way. I think this name would be better for females, at least with this spelling.

This name is just plain ugly. Why would you even consider it?

This name has a harsh sound to it that I don't like. It is also one of those modern, trendy names that make me gag. Bronwyn is much better--in sound and in meaning--if you feel the need to go in this direction.

Although this name may sound masculine to Brit/Welsh ears, as an American I find it to be quite feminine and lovely. It's soft, fresh and modern, not harsh at all. I've met a couple toddlers named Brynn and they are adorable.

As a rule, any name listed on this website as "English (Modern)" is cheap, tacky and low class. Brynn seems to be no exception.
-- LakeGirl  8/10/2009
To me, adding a superfluous "n" to a masculine name does not make it feminine.

Ugly, and there's too many consonants for me.

Eh, it's okay, but I don't much go for modern names.
-- Aureliano  3/2/2010
It sounds so incomplete. I prefer Bronwyn/Bronwen.
-- McHobbit  4/26/2010
I love this name! Strong yet sweet, simple yet pretty. I think it would be a much better choice over the similar sounding Lynn.
-- Hannah_E  5/9/2010
If I ever have a daughter, this will be her name. This is my absolute favorite name and I do not find it harsh in any way. No, This is NOT a cheap name just because it is modern! It is a beautiful name and very feminine!

Bryn Hoppy, baby daughter of "Real Housewife of New York" Bethenny Frankel. Father's last name is Hoppy, and Bryn was given this name in tribute to father, Jason's, late brother, Bryan.

I like this name. It's very soft and sweet-sounding.
-- GirlWithN0Name  2/6/2011
This 'name' looks like a tacky masculine combination of Brian and Flynn. Although the spelling Bryn is much nicer, I would never consider using either name on a real person.

Surprisingly, I love this name. I usually detest made-up names that sound like they belong in a paperback sci-fi novel. This one, however sounds classy and simple- like a combo of Brooke and Winnie.

It's sophisticated without trying to be :) Brynn's growing on me...

Brynn Calfaria, the hymn tune.
-- writer371  4/24/2011
I totally LOVE this name! It's actually one of the characters in one of my many, many ongoing novels. There's also a girl at school with this name. She's talented, pretty, confident, funny, smart, kind, and is the glass-is-always-half-full types. Brynn goes on my top name list!
-- writer371  4/25/2011
I don't mind Brynn as a nickname for Bryana, but as a girl's formal name: no.
-- Dawson  5/20/2011
I find this name to be a nice name for a girl or boy. It is NOT cheap, and just because it's modern doesn't make it ugly or harsh. I like the name Brynn a lot!
