Brennah Origin and Meaning

The name Brennah is a girl's name.

Brennah is a feminine name that represents a variant spelling of Brenna, which has Irish and Gaelic origins meaning 'raven-haired' or 'little drop.' The added 'h' gives the name a more elaborate appearance while maintaining the same pronunciation. Brenna itself derives from the male name Brendan, a name associated with Saint Brendan the Navigator. Brennah began appearing more frequently in the United States during the 1990s and early 2000s, when alternative spellings of traditional names became increasingly popular. Though never reaching the top naming charts, Brennah appeals to parents seeking a name with Celtic heritage and a contemporary twist. The name conveys strength and a touch of mysticism while remaining accessible and feminine.
