I really love this name! It has a smooth, strong sound that you can’t get with a longer name. Also, it’s definitely feminine, but honestly I could see this as unisex, it doesn’t feel too girly for a boy either.

A lot of people dislike this name for being too short but I think it's really sweet. I prefer the spelling Brie but both are great!

My (real) name is Breathe, and almost everyone I meet confuses it with “Bree” or even “Breath” sometimes, haha. But that's okay, I love my name, and I'm so grateful my Mama chose it for me. It's one of my favorite things about myself :)

Fine as a nickname, but too short, youthful, and unprofessional as a first name.

My name is Breonna, but I have always gone by just Bre. One E. I love my name, it is youthful. It's short and spunky. Just like me! I'm not often asked if "Bre" is short for anything however. I do get the "you're a cheese" comment on occasion.

Makes me think of the cheese, Brie.

I like it as a nickname for Sabrina or some other name with the "Bree" sound in it, but it sounds too minimal and wallflower-y as a full first name.

Before Bree Timmins, my impression of the name was that it chosen by wannabe lazy hippy parents, who read "The Lord of the Rings" up until the point the hobbits reached the town of Bree, on the edge of the Shire.
They then went, "Geeze, this book is really LONG! I'm just going to skip through it now but tell everyone that I read the whole thing".
They then chose the name Bree for their daughter to demonstrate how very up with Tolkien they are.
Either that, or they called their daughter after the cheese, but changed the spelling because they were worried it would be pronounced BRY.
Either way, my impression was that it was a name chosen by idiots.

Bree Timmins was a teenage character on Australian TV soap. She started out as an overweight sullen geek from a lower-class family, but morphed into an overweight grouchy emo.
Because of the show, I always think of this as a name for a fat bogan chick.

I think this is a very pretty name! I don't like the names Gabreiella or Brianna and I don't think "Oh, Bree must be short for something!" It can stand on its own. I know a girl named Bree and have always liked the name.

My name is Bree and weirdly enough I am homeschooled! And a bit of a dork too. I get compliments on my name and am rarely asked if it is short for something. I've always loved being named Bree.

Bree is the main character in the webseries lonelygirl15, a homeschooled self-admitted dork. The webseries originally was posted as her video blog, so it shocked many viewers that the friendly, amusing Bree was actually a fictional character.

This name is kind of simplistic and rather like a nickname as opposed to a name on its own. My mother can't stand this one.

My friend has this name but it is spelt Breigh, closer to the original Irish spelling. There was also a girl in our high school who used Bre as a nickname for Breanne.

Too minimalist. Sounds like a nickname for Sabrina or Gabrielle, which I would rather use. The name is somewhat too girly and youthful.

In Chronicles of Narnia, specifically in The Horse and His Boy, there is a Talking Horse named Bree. A boy named Shasta rides him to Archenland. The name is short for Bree-hinny-whinny-hoohy-ha, a typical Talking Horse name. It is my belief, however, that C. S. Lewis got the name from Tolkien (or the other way around) because they were friends and contemporaries.

My friend's name is Bree and it is not short for anything. She said in preschool, her preschool teacher called her Brianna and she did not answer because she did not know she was talking to her! The teacher called her parents and said that she would not answer her name, Brianna, and her parents said her name is Bree, just Bree. The lady had never heard of that as a plain first name.

It sounds like short for Briana. I didn't know that this was a name all by itself. I think that if you had this name, people would always be wondering if it was short for something.
