I seem to remember talk of a stream, but the water was 'bracken'. Or maybe not.

Didn't a lady from "Doctor's" have a daughter called Bracken?

I vaguelly remember it from when I off on mat leave.

TBH think it suits a boy better but it's the only time I've hear it before.

It's not actually a boy's name though. Is it? Bit harsh sounding.
