No, to be perfectly honest.

DramaAlpaca · 31/12/2019 23:10

No. Not good.

There was a recent thread on this name if you search for it.

TripleSeptic · 31/12/2019 23:11

I love this name. There was a thread about it recently

DearTeddyRobinson · 31/12/2019 23:11

He's not the messiah Grin

How bout Kevin instead? Or Keith?

Apparently there were 91 Brians born in 2018. Which seems surprisingly high.

Krazynights34 · 31/12/2019 23:16

Ah I have a brother called Brian. It’s good

EmmaC78 · 31/12/2019 23:16

Not keen, sorry.

AdaColeman · 31/12/2019 23:16

Great name if you come from Hull. Xmas Wink

Expressedways · 31/12/2019 23:18

I know 2 toddler Brians! Both American though.

TripleSeptic · 31/12/2019 23:20

There are a lot of names I dislike more.

I am neutral about the name.

ArseDarkly · 31/12/2019 23:29

I'm Brian and so's my wife. Can't beat a New Year's Eve Brian thread!

DramaAlpaca · 31/12/2019 23:34

Why on earth would you post the same thread again? Confused

FluffyEggsontoast · 31/12/2019 23:37

Looks too much like Brain to me. Makes me feel a bit yucky

MondeoFan · 31/12/2019 23:38

Brian is my Dad's name. If I had a DS which i don't I wouldn't have called him Brian. There's no way

JohnLewisIain · 31/12/2019 23:43

I used to live Brian Cant.

Astronica · 01/01/2020 01:41

Not good I think. Its sounds are nice enough but so strongly associated with 60-80 year olds that it doesn't work for me for a little one. And I'm very open to the idea of formerly dated names coming back - but this one doesn't work for me.

Yerawizard · 01/01/2020 01:42

@DearTeddyRobinson he's a very naughty boy!

emilybrontescorsett · 01/01/2020 10:08

Awful but so are a lot of the overpopulation man's names.

Poorolddaddypig · 01/01/2020 10:11

No

MaidenMotherCrone · 01/01/2020 10:23

He's not the Messiah he's just a very naughty boy.

Dontknownow86 · 01/01/2020 10:25

I like it

Pud26 · 01/01/2020 10:33

My son's middle name is Brian. He's 7 months old. I love the name and wanted it as his first name but my partner was so keen but allowed it to be his middle name!
