Bria
This is the name of a coworker's new granddaughter. Thoughts? It's pronounce BREE-ah. "What matters most is how well you walk through the fire." -Charles Bukowski

Nice! As a teen I really like Brianne and Brianna. More recently I've loved Gabrielle and Gabriella. Plus I have a bit of a crush on Bree and Brielle. So I guess the "bree" sound must appeal to me, because I think Bria is quite nice and fresh.

Makes me think of Brie cheese. I kind of like it.

A girl aged about 14 or 15 at our former church is named Bria. I think it is very pretty.

It's okay but I like Brianna or Brianne much better. Bria seems a bit unfinished.

It feels like it should be a nn for something. Not horrible- just incomplete.

I actually quite like it. I think I would pronounce it differently though.

Seems nice to me. Br-names don't really thrill me, but Bria is crisp and neat and not childish, and it's memorable.

It's cute.

I'd prefer it as a nn than a full name tbh. It feels like you're in the midst of saying a name and then get cut off.I'd like it as a nn for Briallen though, which is a GP of mine. Or even a name like Briar or Briony.
