This name is seriously awful to me. It sounds too close to Brobee (a character from Yo Gabba Gabba), and I HATE Yo Gabba Gabba. It also sounds too close to Broody.
I've only met 2 people with this name. One of my best friends (girl) is named Brodie, and a boy named Brody. Some people call this name "tasteless" but I think it's a fair name. I don't dislike it, but I don't favorite it either.
My name is Brodie. I've always loved my name, even if people are usually expecting a person of the male gender when they hear it. I was reading some of the other comments and I was getting quite annoyed, hearing that people think my parents are "tasteless" is awful. My parents are the opposite. The name suits me and my personality. I'm different and it shows through my unique name.
God, do I hate this name. The Brody spelling is just as bad, along with Brady. They all sound like the names of stoned surfers or dogs. I mean really, how well is the name 'Brodie/Brody' going to suit a man in his 70's? It's gag inducing. I feel horrible for all the poor little boys being given this name by their modern and trendy tasteless parents. The sound of this name grates my ears. And for a GIRL?! It couldn't be any more masculine. For god sakes, it begins with BRO! I will forever hate this name with a passion and hope to never meet a little Brody (because there surely aren't any over the age of maybe 15) in my life.

I have loved this name for a boy since I saw Mallrats. I think it's a cute, but tough, name. I prefer the BRODIE spelling over BRODY because it looks less like a last name, and just because I prefer -ie endings as opposed to -y endings on names.
