So I've been loving the name Brielle for some time now. I like it a lot better than the more common Gabrielle and it avoids the nn Gabby which I'm not fond of. What do you think? Combos?

It makes me think of cheese. Sorry.

Because brie and brioche are cheeses.

I'm not as fond of Brielle as the Gabrielle and Gabriella commons. I still like it, but there's something missing.

I think Brielle is pretty and my preferred combo for it is Chiaki Brielle (my combos tend to incl. Jpns. names). It's on my long list of combos, so it's ok to steal that one. I find it works esp. well in the mn spot... Can switch some of these around if you like...

Charity Brielle (don't meet a lot of little Charitys these days)
Christina / Kristina Brielle
Elizabeth Brielle
Carmen Brielle
Brielle Janessa
Brielle Felicity
Felicity Brielle
Brielle Amaryllis
Brielle Esperanza
Jocelyn Brielle
Brielle Alexandra
Amity Brielle
Brielle Anneliese
Brielle Anastasia
Esther Brielle
Hadassah Brielle
Devorah Brielle
Sundeia Brielle (sun-DEE-ah)
Brielle Adrianna
Erina Brielle (eh-REE-na)... Jpns., but close enough to a western name to get away with it

Totally with you.

I, too, dislike Gabby. I've always viewed it as an epithet,m and have never understood how it caught on as a nickname. But Brielle neatly avoids this. Actually, I prefer Briella even more.

I don't have any Brielle combos, but this is basically what I've tossed around for Briella:

Briella Gwen Fae
Brielle Fay Wren / Briella Faye Wren
Briella Wren Fay / Briella Wren Faye
