Brande is a feminine name with Germanic roots, derived from the Old High German word 'brand' meaning 'sword' or 'fire.' It emerged as a variation of the name Brenda, which gained popularity in the 20th century. Brande has a strong, bold quality while maintaining feminine appeal. Though never extremely common, it saw modest usage in the United States during the 1970s and 1980s. The name carries connotations of strength, passion, and vibrance.
