Don't like it much. It reminds me of "Bruxa" (broo-shuh), which means witch, in Portuguese. I know a girl who bears this name, but she's a redhead with green eyes, so it doesn't suit her much. We nickname her "Brunxa" for fun.
My parents gave me this as a middle-name and I've always disliked it. Can't say it was total hatred, but I wasn't thrilled with it. Happily took my maiden name as a middle name when I married.
