Just click on the blue names, and you'll find the meanings.Your "almost" middle name looks like Sarann to me, or some similar blend of Sarah and Ann(e) - since Briallen is Welsh, and Sarah Anne is a classic Welsh combination (including my grandmother, and almost me!), this could well be the answer.
