Do you think "Prince" (Brendan) and "Rain, moisture, drop" (Brennan) are negative meanings? Brandon means "Hill covered with broom", and while that's not exactly negative, I prefer the other two meanings.

I was mistakenI was under the impression that Brendan (and Brennan) etymologically came from words meaning “stinking hair.” It looks like I was wrong?
