[Opinions] Re: Brian
in reply to a message by queenv
I had no idea Brian was overly used in the 70's and 80's. That would account for why I see next to no enthusiasm for it now. It's always been a mystery for me because I consider it a good, handsome, underappreciated name.
I thought the reason was the uber-popularity of Briana in the 90's. Yuck-o I hate Briana. I'd much rather see Bryony used as a "feminine form" of Brian even though stricktly speaking it isn't a form of Brian.
Now is exactly the time when Brian would stand out in the newest generation. He'd be one of the very few Brians around in his age group.
I only like the Brian spelling. Bryan seems trendy and down-market.
