Briar rose. I like Rose, not so sure about Briar.

I think Briar Rose / Sleeping Beauty.

Briar Rose is sleeping beauty's name I think?!

I was thinking for a girl. Already got a boys name! I didn't know it meant prickly shrub lol, I don't think that puts me off too much.

I think It sounds really pretty and not very popular. No it's not made up ppHmm

I love it paired with rose. Although I don't like how popular rose has become so probably isn't an option.

Great as a nickname for Bryony/Briony

I like it. It's unfussy but memorable, and it sounds like a name even though I've not heard it before.

MrsGollach · 06/10/2018 22:27

ridiculous. are we just making up names now?

motortroll · 06/10/2018 22:23

Love it!

RavenWings · 06/10/2018 22:23

Love the sound of it, not sure that I would actually use it myself. However if Hazel, Willow etc are acceptable I don't see why this wouldn't be.

I know a little boy named Briar. I like it better for a girl, though. It's a nice nature name.

It means a prickly shrub. That would put me off it as a name I’m afraid.
