Brian?

[DonnaHaroldson]

Is this a good baby name?

I think it’s cute, due a come back! Think it is likely one that’ll split opinion though!

Absolutely not

I know of one toddler Brian. I would not say that I think it’s a nice name though.

No

Awful.

Brian...top marks for not trying...

Makes me sing Arctic Monkeys. Don’t think the world is ready for its comeback just yet though sorry.

No, sorry.. horrible name, and i've never met a nice one!

Due a comeback! You'll be ahead of the curve.

Brian sounds strong and cool compared to all the cutesy Archies, Alfies and Teddies!

I really like it actually

Def not due a comeback ever imo.
Only pulled off by a Canadian with a guitar imo!!

It's hideous.

Brian is married to Brenda.

Isn't Brian the yoni massager from Hull?

I married one. And he’s proper lovely.

No

I hate it, but weirdly our top girls name is Bryony. Go figure.

No. It's either the snail from The Magic Roundabout or it is a middle aged bank manager from Slough who wears a vest under his polyester shirt.

No definitely not.

Better with a Y. Bryan looks nicer.

And it's always spelt "brain" in emails. Used to drive a Brian I knew mad!

Fine if you are giving birth to a balding, moustached 70 year old

No, it's not good.

It could be due a comeback! Defo better than Gary.

It’s love when there’s a fada on it and it becomes Brían (Bree-an).

Brian is fine.

As are names like Roger, Gary, Darren, Alan, Neil, Mark, Martin, Nigel...
Much better than all the OT names or Alfie, Albie, Archie type names.

good one OP

Lovely name, every Brian I know has been nice! An older name now though, popular in a certain generation.

I know a 24 year old Brian. I don't mind it, at least it's not one of those cutesy names that are fashionable for boys at the moment.
