I really like Brennan, and Brenna

I used to love it, and while I don't dislike it now it just strikes me as a little bit trendy. :-/ Also, I think it would constantly be mistaken for Brendan, Brandon, and even Braden. People would be going through the list of Br--n names before realizing it was Brennan. :b But maybe I'm just being cynical, lol. I like it better than Brendan, and I definitely prefer Brendan to Brandon. It's name a bad name at all and I think it would sound very nice as a brother to Mira.

Brennan is so much nicer than Brendan, Brennan and Mira sound great!

What about Mira Ruth and Brennan Hugh

I love Brennan. I never knew about it, until I met a Brennan in one of my college classes. I have always been a fan of Brandon and Brendan, so I picked up Brennan right away. I really cant see any drawbacks, but maybe thats because I love the name too much?

Brennan isn't my own favorite but I like seeing other people use it. Concerning names with that general look, I like Brennan and Brannon a wee bit more than Brendan and Brandon. The names similar to those that I love, however, are Bran and Bram.

Brennan's not my thing personally, but I think it's really handsome for you. :) I think Mira and Brennan sound wonderful together.

As for drawbacks...uh, bran cereal? Similarity to the painfully fug Brandon? There's not much here--Brennan's a good name.

Array

I really can't .

Brendan is all right, imo, but I like Brennan so much better! Drawbacks? Not a one, in my book. :o)

Brennan reminds me of the German verb Brennen, which means 'to Burn'

I like Brennan and I think it is a lot better than Brendan which I dislike.

It seems like yet another faux-Irish creation to me, so I think it would date since those are so fashionable now. Obviously it's a real surname, but it's a creation as far as first-name usage goes. Like Finnegan.

Otherwise, I think it sounds like someone is saying "Brendan" with their mouth full. I definitely prefer Brendan by a mile.

I think its nice. I find its female varient, Brenna, a bit more appealing, personally. Brennen is like Jake and Luke, I like it but it isn't my style. Mira & Brennen sound sweet together.

I think it is a bit trendy and I don't really like the use of surnames as fns unless they have family significance. That being said, it is okay as far as surname as fns go.

While I like Brendan a lot more (because Im so opposed to Brandon) Brennan isnt bad. The only thing that Im not liking about it right at this minute as I stare at it, is all the 'n's...it just seems too drawn out for me, maybe like it doesnt have a real ending. I dont think its too trendy though, Brendan is much trendier.

Mira and Brennan sound very good together though.

I've liked both Brennan and Brenna for a while now. I would use either one, but they've been vetoed. I don't think that Brennan is too trendy. The only drawback that I can think of is that people might confuse Brennan with Brendan.

BTW Mira and Brennan is a great sibset.
