Brynley

Thanks so much for the feedback everyone! Its given me a lot to present my husband with for sure! Ha. I like the idea of using Leigh for the middle name lol then he can call her Brynley.

I like Brynn more than Brynley..I think its beautiful..I like Bria too..bryn is not a very good boys name..there are too many litle girl Brynn's

Please remember that Bryn is a boy name. Brynn is for girls

I think Bryn, Brynn, Brynnley, or however you choose to spell it, is pretty irredeemably ugly, but Bridget or Bryony would be wonderful.

I prefer Bryn to Brynley. I typically dislike "ley"-ending names (my one exception being my favorite name of Everly). And if you spell it Brynlea I think you'll just confuse people. If you'd like to honor your sister, I'd suggest Bryn Leah for her FN and MN combo. Otherwise, I'm not a fan of either Bryn or Brynley.

As a couple of pp's have said,Bryn is a boys name,why not save it for a boy?

I don't like Brynley, I don't think it will age well at all.

I like Brynley a lot! I don't think it's too childish at all. And as for all the negative comments, adding an N to Bryn does not make it anymore feminine. Use what you love.

I think what they're getting at is the culture clash. Bryn is welsh and strictly for boys. If you add an n, and make it Brynn, it doesn't exactly tie into the Welsh version and can be used for girls. I think it's just not respectful to use Bryn period, even with an extra n, on a girl and save it for a boy, where it's appropriate.

Brinley is much more appropriate.

It's nms, but I much prefer Brynn to Brynley/Brynlea. I would suggest using Brynn instead of Bryn since Bryn is a boy's name and many identify it as such.

Bryn can just as easily be used for a girl too. I don't really care where it comes from. Times change as do names. I think it's VERY feminine.
