I love the name Brandon, what people's opinions?
Not a fan of Bran as a nn though so he would be Brandon or Don/Donnie for short

I only know one Brandon and he is adorable - multi-talented, handsome, kind, sweet natured so I like it by association.

I prefer Brendan

user12345796 · 01/07/2019 14:48

it's not my favourite but I also know a really lovely kid called Brandon.

Puppilongstrumpf · 01/07/2019 15:19

I like Brandon. Strong, cool and masculine. Not overused. What's not to like?

I wouldn't shorten it, it's so easy to say!

AverageMummy · 01/07/2019 15:35

Don’t like it sorry

Whoops75 · 01/07/2019 15:40

I don’t like it, very 90210 so quite dated

TurquoiseAndPurple · 01/07/2019 15:40

Don't like it at all. Brendan is better but I don't really like that either.

The name of my abusive ex. Very much an American red neck name

legalseagull · 01/07/2019 15:48

Love it. Brandon flowers and Bran from Game of Thrones. I think it's a cool name

legalseagull · 01/07/2019 15:48

Don't like Don as a NN. I would assume it's from Donald, which is definitely not due a come back

Have always loved this name

Hotterthanahotthing · 01/07/2019 17:02

It's right up there with Malcolm for meConfused

teenmum18 · 01/07/2019 17:04

I love it and love bran or Donnie too

Puppilongstrumpf · 01/07/2019 17:08

Brandon and Malcolm have no similarities that I can see Confused

notacooldad · 01/07/2019 17:10

I know a few Brandin's most are around 20 years old now and are nice young men so I have no negative associations.
It's a nice name.

Really not keen but if you love it go for it!
