As someone named Branwen, most people find it hard to pronounce and refer to me as BRAN-D-WHEN or simply as Brandon (or any other B name that does not make sense at all how you could get it from Branwen) until I correct them (which I gave up on 2 years ago, if I'm being honest) but the name really is unique and gets lots of compliments once they figure out what it is. I personally love the name because of its meaning and how it fits me (I have super pale skin and messy dark hair). The name itself is perfect and I don't see why people see the need to change it in spelling and such.

I think it is too complex. I prefer Bran as a full name.
I think this is a great name. My mom wanted to name me or one of my sisters this, she chose Caitlin, Hannah, and Emma (me). I prefer Branwen to Bronwen.
I don't much like the pronunciation of this name (but, then again, I'm American and this is a Welsh name -- it's the "a" that sounds a bit harsh to me). I *love* the name Bronwyn (pronounced BRAHN-wen) by comparison. The softer "ah" is more delicate & feminine.
