Possible Cognates of Brian?
Hi,I love the name Brian and any cognates, and I have two questions. I kept thinking Brenna was a cognate of Brian, but whenI looked it up it wasn't so. Still does anyone have any extra info on this name besides what's in the DB?Also, a user posted a poll the other day with some BRI- names, among which was Brienne. I loved it instantly but couldn't find it in the DB so I Googled it, and it turns out there has been a war with this name, and a French county. So does this name have its own meaning, or is it also a cognate of Brian? Because I don't know French, but it only looks similar and that doesn't always mean it's a cognate. Any info is greatly appreciated.Thanks,
