What is "Bracca's town"? What is the history of the Olde English name and place? What does "Bracca's town" resemble? Good, evil, comfort, isolation, perhaps? I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

I might be wrong, but I think it is an English surname. In which case I still don't know the meaning. But look into web sites that specialize in last names.
