can't decide, does this name sound strange?

Hi, I really like the name Brianne especially as Brian is my grandpas name but our surname is Brown, does Brianne Brown sound funny i cant decide? Thanks xx

I like it when it's pronounced BrieArne not BriAnn & BrieArne Brown sounds OK, but not BriAnn Brown....

BTW it would be fine as a middle name and still pay tribute to your grandpa.

I like Brianna better. Flows better with your surname.

you might not want to move to australia, the actor bryan brown is a household name!

i think it sounds fine, if you like it go with it!

There was a Brianne at my primary school. I'm not overly keen, sorry.
