Brian and Brianna
I saw a set of twins on an episode of forensic files with these names, and I don't see why someone would even do this to their kids. I think it's awful because they gave their children the same name, basically.
Do you like Bryan, Brian, Brianna, even Briana, Brianne, Breanne, and Breanna? Or any variant?

I actually know of twins named Brian and Brianna. They were a high school teacher's kids. I think they're completely awful, they literally gave their kids the same name. That reminds me, my mom and her brother are Michael and Michelle. I dislike sibling names even starting with the same letter, so I really don't understand this.
I don't like any of the variants. I do like Brenna and Brennan, but those are different. They seem fresher and less worn out than Brian/Briana/etc.

I like them all. I wouldn't use any of them due to them being overly popular. It's ridiculous to name twins that way.
Yeah, these two together just look dumb, like the parents were just idiots who didn't care.
Brian, I don't like, but it's so aggressively bland it's hard to get upset over. It makes me giggle as one of Dumbledore's middle names.
I've made my feelings about Brianna very clear. It's far and away my least favorite girl name.

It doesn't bother me so much because it's the same name but it has always rubbed me the wrong way when one twin's name was just the other's with some extra letters stuck to it. I guess the different pronunciations here make it a bit better but still.
I used to know twins Anna and Joanna and it always made me a bit uncomfortable.
Michael and Michelle or John and Jane I rather like. I appreciate themed names, especially for multiples.

I like Breanna. There's identical twins at school Janette and Janetta, so confusing. Kids names should start with a different letter especially multiples

LOL. That reminds of when I was about eight years old and I wanted to have twin girls and name them Francie and Frances. And of my older sister trying to tell me how dumb that was. I. Can. Not. Believe. that anyone named twins Janette and Janetta. (I don't mean that literally. I believe you.) It's something an eight-year-old thinks is a great idea.

Brianna sounds fresher to my ears, while Brian sounds dated.
I'm not sure of the spellings but I had a class in college with a girl named Brianna and her younger brother was Brian.
I like Breanne/Brianne.
I like Breanne/Brianne.
Brian and Brianna have different sounds, at least, but yeah, I don't think they're good together either.
The only feminine name that starts with a Bree sound that I sometimes like is Brigitta. And I like Bryony, when 1st syllable is "bry".
Brian / Bryan is pretty dated in the US but doesn't annoy me the way Ryan does. I think of the song "Brian Boru's March" and a relative.

Brian and Brianna are terrible names for twins.
I don't like any of the Brian variant names. I don't mind any of them, but I don't particularly like them. I'm reading 'Ivanhoe' which has a character "Brian de Bois-Guilbert"... it is such a "middle-aged man" name to me that I have a hard time picturing it in a medieval English setting!
