I like it, but friend said "it's just Brian with a y on the end"...Grin She has a point.

It reminds me of the protagonist in 'Atonement' and she is very annoying, so personally I couldn't use it. I think it's quite a nice name though, fairly unusual but not weird

It's a kind of goodie two shoes name in my book, along with Emily, Verity and Bronwyn.

Never thought of it as being Brian-y though. I will now! Grin
