Honestly, I think Broox is an acceptable, established variation of Brooks just like Elinor for Eleanor. I have also seen Brooxe in ancestral records dating from the 1600s.

I like those sib-set names a lot!

I just Googled Broox. It's not very common, however, it seems to be a surname. I'm assuming it's a variant of Brooks. I also went to Ancestry.com and there were a few families named Broox who immigrated to America. Perhaps the name came about in this family first as a surname.
