Is this a good baby name?

Brian/Brian?

There was a toddler Clive in a waiting room I was in this week. I was weirded out by my reaction - a mixture of horror and enchantment.

This was all internal by the way, I’m not a complete arse.

No it’s not!

Ok revival was too strong a word- but Paul sounds less odd than it did before to me at least

Brian is fine. Not keen on Ryan.

Don't like Brian

Brennen is lovely though

Never met a Brian under the age of 50.

Brian is much nicer than Ryan imo.

Brynn?

Uh... It's not horrible.

I actually rather like Derek.

I just never have liked the way it sounds.

I know a Barry and a Trevor, both children.... so maybe!

What about Byron, Blain, Bradley, Rylan or Bernard?

Barry and Trevor!! Omg the parents must meet a lot of raised eyebrows 😁😮

Byron is much better.

Probably time to start the comeback.

Now (what I think of as) "old man" names - Reggie, Alf, Stanley, etc - have all become so popular, it is time to start on the next generation down, so that would include Brian.

I think it is much better than the alternatives suggested on this thread.

Magic Roundabout. I know - it shows my age!

Yeah... it’s up there with baby Keith.

Bury it OP. No one needs a Brian anymore.

50 years too late

I don't like it I'm afraid.

Brian is my 80 year old cousin, not so good for a little baby.

But the 80 year old was once a cute little baby too!

Yes to Ryan, Bryan is meh. And god not Gary please! All Garys I know are bald, fat, and full of self importance so my judgment might be clouded.

Barry gets called Baz for short... Our Baz
