Hi there, we love Bryson at the moment. Any thoughts on this name please? We like Bryson Cole! Thank you so much!

Bryson Cole sounds like the name of a company. Very surnamey.

leoniethelioness · 23/08/2016 09:36

I've only heard of it as a surname.

How about Bryce? I've met a couple of these

Not keen I'm afraid. It's too 'surname-like' for my tastes. And it kind of sounds like 'Bison' too.

Byron is nicer but it's the name of a burger chain.

^^ yes - Dyson!

Crispbutty · 22/08/2016 15:36

Makes me think of a Hoover.

LondonGirl83 · 22/08/2016 15:35

I like Bryson. It sounds like a strong confident name.

Very American

Olbersparadox · 22/08/2016 09:33

I don't like it at all, not even Byron.
Cole, Bryson - Bryson feels more surname - like to me. I know Americans think it's nice to use surnames as first names.

I personally would just go with Cole. It's better.

Bryson Cole sounds very American.

It's not my sort of name at all, but if you like it that's all that matters.

CodyKing · 22/08/2016 01:13

Or Byron?

GoldFishFingerz · 22/08/2016 00:36

Makes me think Bison and Brian. What about Bryn

GeneralBobbit · 22/08/2016 00:30

Like Bill Bryson?

I've never heard it used as a first name
