Comments for BRYONY:
Since this is my name -- and it is widely used in the United Kingdom -- I can say for certain that the actual pronunciation is: "BRI-AH-NEE" with the emphasis on the first sylable, using a long "i" sound. It is almost as if you are saying the name "Brian", but with a long "e" sound attached to the end.-- Hadrian Valerian 12/26/2004
Bryony is a very beautiful name. It is one of my favorites.-- Anonymous User 1/23/2005
I know a Bryony who pronounces it like Brian with an -ee sound on the end.-- Anonymous User 3/21/2005

My cousin's name is this but it's spelt Brioni for a difference.-- Holzi194 2/15/2007
Aww such a cute name. =)-- rainxxxgurl 4/17/2007
I think this name is so cute!-- rayne_is_lola 7/19/2007
Bryony is the name of one of the characters in Brian Jacques's The Outcast of Redwall. She was such a sweet little girl/mouse (you know how those books), that this name has left a lasting positive impression on me.-- Anonymous User 11/19/2007
Sorry but my name is Bryony and it's not pronounced at all like it says here. If said slowly and proplerly, it should be-
Bry (like cry)
On
Ee
But when people say it quick its more like Bry-Annie, but the A in Annie isn't said the same as it would be in Annie, it's more subtle, like the A in Anonomous for example. Sounds more like "uh" if that makes sense.-- Bry---x 1/9/2008
To the person who said it is bree-ah-nee, I'm in the UK, and have only heard brian-ee, like Brian.-- Celeno 3/21/2008
I love the name Bryony! It has a strong feeling to it and is also great because it is so uncommon. However, unless you live in a place where it is a common name, I wouldn't use it because it sounds too much like Brian or Brainy.-- Anonymous User 8/28/2008
I much prefer Briony - I don't like the look of the double Y's.-- Anonymous User 11/2/2008
Etruscan priests believed that white Bryony possessed the power to avert lightning. According to legend, Augustus Caesar wore a crown woven of this vine to shield him in storm.-- Anonymous User 5/28/2009
To be truthful, I do not understand the obsession with this name. It is neither pleasing nor fulfilling. I can say with sure confidence that I am correct in foreseeing the near future a rapid increase in the use of "Bryony" and such names like "Brianna," "Kaycee," "Jaylin," Kaydyn," and the sort. "Fad" names. "Trend" names. Appealing? I think not. Nor do they give the slightest impression of intelligence. Perhaps for a spoiled little Southern Pageant baby. Definitely not the definition of brains.
Choose a name your child will thank you for later in life. I certainly cannot imagine a lawyer named "Bryony Ferris," or "Jaycee Towns."
As a parting note; Am I the only living being who has realized the meaning is "To Swell"?-- Francesca 12/16/2010
This name is pretty. I love the double Y. It looks heaps better than Briony.-- Anonymous User 1/7/2012
This name isn't used a lot, but i don't really like it. It sounds like Brian with a y at the end, and the pronunciation is a bit clumsy and muddled sounding. Everybody likes different things but I think some people are attracted to certain names simply because they are rare, rather than really liking the name truly for it's sound and structure, which is what counts the most. There are many more popular names than Bryony that are also much nicer.-- Chrono 4/13/2012
