It feels a little old-fashioned to me as I don't know of any young ones, but it's a good solid friendly name. Solid and hill-like! Female use of Bryn always mystifies me as apart from anything else, it's so similar to Bryan.
Bryn combos all look like place-names to me! but I like most of yours, especially Bryn Malcolm, Bryn Hywel and Bryn Richard. Other suggestions:Bryn Lawrence
Bryn Colin
Bryn Madoc
Bryn Meirion
Bryn Rhodri
Bryn Ingram
Bryn Philip

Hill-like...hehe. OH Bryn Philip is awesome! How did I overlook that one? Bryn Rhodri is really nice, too.

You know about Bryn Terfel, right?
I recently added it to my pnl even though it seems like totally nms. Aberforth is my fave of your combos. I might do:Bryn Howard
oh heck i'm too sleepy to do this right now. lol.

Oh yesMy renewed love for him the other day is what renewed my love for that name. :)Oh, I really like Bryn Howard! Not a big fan of Howard, but it goes really well in that combo.

I like it. I used to know a male Bryn, and the name suited him well. Out of your combos, I like:
Bryn Alasdair
Bryn Edward
Bryn Malachy
Bryn Malcolm
Bryn Patrick
Bryn Theron
Bryn Walter - Walter is so under-appreciated these days.

I think that Bryn sounds like a total football-loving beer-drinkinking jock name. Out of your combos I like Bryn Richard.

I can see that, too. Like some rugby thug. I don't prefer that image. :P

I really love Brynn (on a girl) and am seriously considering using it as a mn on my future daughter.It sounds a little girly to me on a boy. I am biased because I love Brynn so much, but I do like Bryn Malcolm!

Bryn Forest
Bryn Hartwin

I think Bryn Padraig works better than Bryn Patrick, actually. Or maybe Bryn Padraic. Yes, that's good. Bryn Gethin has a nice sound, too.

All I think of is Bryn Mawr College (women's liberal arts college). I can't see it on a guy because of this, even though I know it's a guy's name. Also, the 2 people named Bryn(n) I've met were also girls. I don't have the greatest personal associations with the name, but I don't think it's a bad name or anything.You've got a lot of great combos.
Bryn Alasdair
Bryn Patrick
Bryn Theron
Bryn Walter (Walter needs more love!)

Personally, I prefer Brynn for a girl. I'm just not warming to it as a boy's name.Having said that, I will say that Bryn Patrick and Bryn Edward are very nice.
