[Opinions] Brennan on a girl?
I'm watching the show "Bones" right now, and at one point they call the main character, Temperance Brennan, by her surname. For some reason I started to really like the sound of Brennan on a girl. WDYT?
I also like Brynn and Brenna / Brynna

I don't mind it on a boy, but I find it much too masculine for a girl.
I think it sounds okay if the girl is being called by her surname, like the show. But I think it sounds too masculine otherwise. I like Brenna much better.
No, definitely prefer Brenna or Brynja...

Please No my son is Brennan! It has remainded between 200-300 for the past 15 years on the Soc. Sec. index. as a boy name and should remain as such. Not to popular but not way out in left field. The boys names are being over run by girls. If it is turned over to the girls it will be just a shame.

I like it, I think, because -an names on boys are so overdone.
I like it...
Brennan is on my favourites list (for both genders). Like most surnames it works on either, and it isn't that established on boys anyway. In fact I've never met a real-life Brennan of either gender yet.

Brennan is awesome on a boy
I hope it does not turn into a girl's name. You already have so many similar girl's names: Brenna, Brianna, Briony

I like Brenna on a girl and I like Brynn for both boys and girls. Brennan is a boy's name to me as it's very "surnamey". I'm not usually keen on surname first names on boys either, but Brennan is one of the few I do like.

i think Brennan is great on a girl, and I also really like Brynn, but not Brenna as much.
